“…For example, estimates of aquifer properties are needed for delineation of groundwater flow paths, evaluation of optimal pumping rates and other aspects of well field design and maintenance, and prediction of local-scale water-level changes in response to pumping stresses. Previously published estimates of the hydraulic properties of aquifers on Long Island, N.Y., (Koszalka, 1980, Misut and Feldman, 1996, and Buxton and Shernoff, 1999 provide a general range of values and a regionalized view but lack detail.…”
