Simulated effects of pumping irrigation wells on ground-water levels in western Saginaw County, Michigan
Christopher J. Hoard, David B. Westjohn
2001, Water-Resources Investigations Report 2001-4227
Success of agriculture in many areas of Michigan relies on withdrawal of large quantities of ground water for irrigation. In some areas of the State, water-level declines associated with large ground-water withdrawals may adversely affect nearby residential wells. Residential wells in several areas of Saginaw County, in Michigan's east-central Lower...

Roderick F. Ortiz, Kenneth E. Bencala
2001, Water-Resources Investigations Report 2000-4154
Spatial determinations of the metal loads in Wightman Fork can be used to identify potential source areas to the stream. In September 1997, a chloride tracer-injection study was done concurrently with synoptic water-quality sampling in Wightman Fork near the Summitville Mine site. Discharge was determined and metal concentrations at 38...
