Ground-water recharge- and discharge-area maps.These
maps show the relative vulnerability of underlying aquifers to surface
sources of potential pollution based primarily on the presence or
absence of protective fine-grained layers (sediments or rocks) and
water levels in wells completed in the aquifer.
Primary recharge
areas do not have protective fine-grained layers and vertical ground-water
movement is downward; these areas are the most vulnerable to pollution
from land-surface activities.
Discharge areas have protective fine-grained
layers and vertical ground-water movement is upward; these areas
are least vulnerable to pollution. These maps can be used by land-use
planners to help properly site facilities to avoid unintentionally
polluting ground water.
