Well Records

Information pertaining to water wells in Harvey, McPherson, Reno, and Sedgwick counties is tabulated in Table 37. The numbers in the first column correspond to the well numbers on the map (Pl. 5) and in the tables of analyses (Tables 13 and 14). The numbers in the first column that are in parentheses indicate wells from which samples of water were taken for analysis. The wells are listed in order by townships from north to south and by ranges from east to west. Within a township the wells are listed in the order of the sections. The measured depths to water level are given to the nearest 0.01 foot, whereas reported depths are given only to the nearest foot and are subject to error. Data pertinent to the construction and yield of the wells are given in the column headed Remarks.
