Well and Test-hole Records

Descriptions of wells and test holes in the Smoky Hill Valley area in Saline, Dickinson, and Geary Counties are given in Table 15. The wells and test holes are listed in order from east to west beginning at Milford in Republican Valley. The locations of all wells and test holes listed in this table are shown on Plate 1. All information classed as "reported" was obtained from the owner or driller. Depths of wells not classed as "reported" are measured and given to the nearest tenth of a foot below the measuring point described in the table, and depths to water level not classed as "reported" are measured and given to the nearest hundredth of a foot.
