This dataset presents tabular data and Excel workbooks used to analyze single-well aquifer tests in pumping wells and slug tests in monitoring wells near Long Canyon. The data also include pdf outputs from the analysis program, Aqtesolv (Duffield, 2007). The data are presented in two zipped files, (1) single-well aquifer tests in pumping wells and (2) slug tests in monitoring wells. The slug-test data were supplied by Newmont Mining Corporation and collected by Golder and Associates in 2011.

Short-term aquifer tests were conducted to estimate hydraulic properties in an alluvial aquifer. Tests included eight single-hole pumping and recovery tests and three slug tests (in a single well). These investigations were conducted in the Wet Mountain Valley, in Custer and Fremont Counties, Colorado. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) conducted aquifer tests in May, 2019. These aquifer tests inform the conceptual understanding of the valley-fill aquifer and serve as primary inputs to the numerical groundwater-flow model. Testing was completed in cooperation with the Upper Arkansas Water Conservancy District. This data release contains raw data from aquifer tests, water-level and pumping discharge rate measurements, well logs, graphs of the testing data, and plots of analytical solutions.

This dataset presents data and analysis from a carbonate-rock aquifer test, conducted near Long Canyon, Nevada in 2016 by Newmont Mining Corporation. Data collected during the test include tabular pumping, subsurface loss from spring supplementation and aquifer-test discharge (ditch discharge), water-levels, and weather data. Water-level, pumping, and spring data were collected and furnished by Newmont Mining Corporation. The furnished data were input into water-level models to estimate monitoring-site drawdown or rise. Water-level models were created using SeriesSEE (Halford and others, 2012), an Excel Add-in. Water-level model input files, archived water-level models, the Excel Add-in, hydrographs, and estimates of monitoring-site drawdown or rise are presented.

U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) in cooperation with the U.S. Air Force Civil Engineering Center conducted short-term aquifer tests at 11 wells to estimate hydraulic properties in the Fountain Creek alluvial aquifer, in El Paso County, Colorado. Data were collected in July 2019 over three days. Single-hole pumping and recovery tests were completed at five wells, and multiple single-hole displacement (solid slug) tests were conducted at all 11 wells. This data release contains water-level data collected at various time intervals (0.25 seconds, 0.5 seconds, and variable during a manual test with a stopwatch) and well-discharge rates for the aquifer tests in comma separated value (CSV) files for the 34 tests analyzed. All water-level displacement data for a given well are provided in a single CSV file for the well. Data are further categorized by the type of aquifer test used for data collection (slug or pumping). Well logs, graphs of the test data, and plots of analytical solutions are included in file, “FCAA_aquifer_testing_description_plots_vFINAL.pdf.”

This point dataset contains estimates of aquifer transmissivity and hydraulic conductivity at selected well locations in the Lost Creek Designated Ground Water Basin, Weld, Adams, and Arapahoe Counties, Colorado. This dataset also contains hydrologic information used to estimate transmissivity from specific capacity at selected well locations. Data were compiled from published reports, consultant reports, and from well-test records on file with the U.S. Geological Survey and Colorado Division of Water Resources. The U.S. Geological Survey prepared this dataset in cooperation with the Colorado Geological Survey and the Lost Creek Ground Water Management District.
