Title of Data: Ground Water Level Measurements from Boreholes Near the Site of the Proposed Repository:1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th Quarters 2005.

Description: Manually and electronically-acquired ground water level measurements from boreholes in the periodic network near Yucca Mountain. The data are reported as elevation of the water table above mean sea level (MSL) and/or as depth-to-the-water table (DTW).

Data Type: Q - Acquired    QA Program: OCRWM QARD-based NSHE QA Program

  • Water Table Altitude (359)
  • Depth-to-Water (5571)
  • Potentiometric Surface (1537)

    Keywords: Ground Water Level

    Comments:
    Manually-acquired data were taken once per quarter; electronically-acquired data were usually acquired once per hour (intervals may vary, check headers). The electronically-acquired data is intended to provide long periods (months) of uninterrupted water level elevation measurements for synoptic study and comparative analyses with other boreholes; such measurements are not intended to be continuous/unbroken for the entire calendar year. Manual measurements are summarized in one Microsoft Excel file containing four worksheets, one for each quarter of calendar year 2005. Electronic measurements are contained in directories identified by borehole name and are also presented as Microsoft Excel files containing one or more worksheets as date-bracketed measurement sets. See "Readme.doc" that is enclosed with the data for further explanation.
