Evaluation of the ground-water resources of the lower Susquehanna River basin, Pennsylvania and Maryland
James M. Gerhart, George J. Lazorchick
1985, Open-File Report 84-748
Ground water in the 3,458-square-mile lower Susquehanna River basin occupies secondary openings in bedrock. The distribution of openings is a function of lithology, depth, and topography. Local flow systems account for most of the total ground-water flow. Average annual recharge for the lower basin is 1,857 million gallons per day,...
