ABSTRACT

Aquifers (water bearing geologic units) are the primary source of drinking water in most of Putnam County, N.Y. The principal sources of data used to define the geometry and hydraulic characteristics of aquifers are the logs of wells and test holes within the county. This report explains how to use a graphical viewer, available on the World Wide Web ( http://ny.ims.er.usgs.gov/website/putnam/index.htm), to locate selected wells and test holes in Putnam County and display their logs.
