P.G. Randich 1975 <p>Test drilling and geologic data indicate that there are two potential aquifers in the Belcourt, N. Dak. area capable of supplying a sufficient quantity of ground water for the city of Belcourt. &nbsp;The Fox Hills aquifer, located about 3 miles (4.8 kilometres) west of Belcourt, could yield a sufficient quantity, as much as 500,000 gallons per day (1,900 cubic metres per day), of ground water for Belcourt, but the quality is unsuitable for a public supply. &nbsp;The Shell Valley aquifer, located about 5 miles (8 kilometres) southwest of Belcourt, appears to contain the quantity and quality of ground water required for the city of Belcourt municipal supply.</p> application/pdf 10.3133/ofr75104 en U.S. Geological Survey Ground-water availability in the Belcourt area, Rolette County, North Dakota reports
