Water-supply potential of major streams and the upper Floridan Aquifer in the vicinity of Savannah, Georgia
Reggina Garza, R.E. Krause
1992, Open-File Report 92-629
Long-term pumping from the Upper Floridan aquifer in the Savannah, Georgia, area has lowered ground-water levels, resulting in increased salinity of ground water by seawater encroachment at Hilton Head Island, S.C., and by saltwater intrusion at Brunswick, Ga. Increased pumpage could cause further salinization of the ground-water resources. The Savannah...
