Course Description:

This course will include concepts, facts, and sources of information for the geologic and hydrologic conditions of ground-water systems in Massachusetts. The course will cover the regional context (larger-scale features) within which site ground-water investigations (assessments or remediations) can be viewed, with an emphasis on those conditions that are unique or different about hydrogeologic conditions in Massachusetts. Results of several case studies of surficial and bedrock aquifers will be presented. Each of these units has unique hydrogeologic characteristics that affect the distribution and movement of water through those units. In addition, sources of hydrogeologic and water-quality information for ground-water systems in Massachusetts will be identified.
