Computer simulation of the steady-state flow system of the Tertiary limestone (Floridan) aquifer system in east-central Florida
C. H. Tibbals
1981, Open-File Report 81-681
The predevelopment steady-state ground-water flow system for 13 ,700 square miles of the Tertiary limestone aquifer system (known as the Florida aquifer in Florida) in east-central Florida is simulated by means of a digital computer model. The model results indicate that about 1,900 cubic feet per second recharges the aquifer...

Proposed observation-well network and ground-water level program for North Carolina
M. D. Winner Jr.
1981, Open-File Report 81-544
An initial system of 223 observation wells is proposed for monitoring ground-water levels in North Carolina. These wells are suggested to replace and upgrade nearly 650 observation wells currently measured in separate State and Federal programs, and are arranged in four groups or networks each having specific objectives. These groups...
