Notes

Introduction * Permeabilities are a defining characteristic of aquifers. * Detailed permeability data for distinct litho/hydrostratigraphic units in the Edwards and Trinity Aquifers has not been quantified in a single borehole. * Hydrologic connection between hydrostratigraphic units in this area is not entirely understood and needs more thorough characterization to better manage water resources. * Two Westbay multiport wells were used to measure hydrogeologic characteristics of rock units.
