DescriptionThe U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), in cooperation with Federal, State, and local agencies, collects a large amount of data pertaining to the water resources in New Jersey each water year (October 1 to September 30). This report describes the USGS New Jersey Water Science Center Observation Well Networks. Record low ground-water levels during water year 2006 (October 1, 2005 to September 30, 2006) are listed, and water levels in six selected water-table observation wells and three selected confined wells are shown in hydrographs. The report describes the trends in water levels in various confined aquifers in southern New Jersey and in water-table and fracture rock aquifers throughout the State. Web site addresses to access the data also are included.
