Abstract

This report presents geohydrologic data from Calvert and S1. Mary's Counties in southern Maryland. It is a complete compilation insofar as it includes all the water wells (604 in Calvert County and 904 in S1. Mary's County) inventoried by the U.S. and Maryland Geological Surveys since the introduction of the present inventory system in 1943. No attempt has been made, however, to inventory all wells drilled in the area. Data were compiled from Bulletin 8 (Overbeck, 1951), Bulletin 11 (Ferguson, 1953) and Bulletin 15 (Otton, 1955) published by the Maryland Department of Geology, Mines, and Water Resources; Basic Data Report NO. 4 (Weigle and Webb, 1970) published by the Maryland Geological Survey; unpublished data on file at the U.S. Geological Survey; and data collected during this project (Chapelle and Drummond, 1982). Much of this information was entered into a computerized data base, and tables 2, 3, 7, and 8 were generated by programs utilizing this data base.
