*In the absence of hydraulic conductivity data for one of these wells, the hydraulic conductivity value used is the geometric mean
of other wells in the same hydrologic monitoring zone (surficial or bedrock).
Water level measurements used for these calculations were collected on June 30 and July 1, 2015
