Water-Quality, Well-Construction, and Ground-Water Level Data for an Investigation of Radionuclides in Ground Water, Hickman and Maury Counties, Tennessee.

摘要

Water-quality, well-construction, and ground-water level data were collected for an investigation of radionuclides in ground water in Maury and Hickman Counties, Tennessee. Seventeen wells and 3 springs were sampled in Hickman County, and 20 wells were sampled in Maury County. Data are presented in tables. Maps of each county show the Location of the data-collection sites. Samples from each site were analyzed for radionuclides, common and trace inorganic ions, indicators of redox conditions, selected nutrients, total organic carbon, and selected physical characteristics. Well-construction data were obtained to help determine the source of the water. Where possible, ground- water Level measurements were made for each well sampled. Samples were collected from May 1989 through mid-August 1989.
