table 1

table 1.--General well information for wells in the Massachusetts-Rhode Island
Observation-Well Network. Values of HIGH (OWmax), LOW, and (OWr) are based on monthly
measurements from start year of record through September 30, 2004. The OWmax
(historical high water level for period of well record) and OWr (maximum annual range
for period of well record) values are used in conjunction with USGS Open-File Report,
80-1205, to estimate probable high ground-water levels. Values for OWc are the monthly
well readings which are available in the monthly data table.

[Water levels are in feet below land-surface elevation; * indicates insufficient
length of record or problems noted in Remarks for use in estimating water levels]
