Abstract

Aquifer and well hydraulic characteristics are determined from more than 100 multiple-well and single-well aquifer tests in the Coastal Plain of South Carolina.Specific-capacity data are presented for many areas where aquifer-test information is sparse.The characteristics determined are based largely on well performance tests conducted by well drillers and consulting engineers.Although use of this information has many limitations, it has value in establishing comparative hydraulic properties for the Coastal Plain aquifers.
