HYDROLOGIC DATA FROM MONITORING OF SALINE-WATER INTRUSION

IN THE CAPE CORAL AREA, LEE COUNTY, FLORIDA

By Daniel J. Fitzpatrick

ABSTRACT

As a result of declining water levels and saline-water intru­ sion in the Cape Coral area, the U.S. Geological Survey in coopera­ tion with the City of Cape Coral established a monitoring well net­ work in Cape Coral and adjacent areas in 1978-79. The network was designed to provide indication of lateral movement of saline water in the upper part of the Hawthorn Formation; to provide trends in water levels; and to provide background data from: (1) the aquifer in the upper part of the Hawthorn Formation; (2) the aquifer in the lower part of the Hawthorn Formation and upper part of the Tampa Limestone; and (3) the surficial aquifer. The monitoring well net­ work consists of 77 wells.

Data collected in this network since 1978, as well as data collected from selected wells in the network prior to 1978, are compiled in this report. These data include water-quality data from 69 wells, water-level data from 29 wells, and lithologic logs from 18 wells. Other data compiled in this report include munic­ ipal pumpage and rainfall data supplied by the City of Cape Coral.

INTRODUCTION

The artesian aquifer in the upper part of the Hawthorn Forma­ tion is a major source of water supply for municipal, domestic, and irrigation uses in Cape Coral. Wells that hydraulically connect the aquifer in the upper part of the Hawthorn Formation to over­ lying and underlying saline water-bearing units provide a direct conduit for saline-water movement into the aquifer. This condition has resulted in a deterioration of the water quality in parts of the aquifer (Boggess and others, 1977). Declines in water levels in some areas have increased the potential for inland movement of highly saline water from the coast, as well as movement of saline water from overlying and underlying water-bearing units into the aquifer.

The U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the City of Cape Coral designed and established a monitoring well network in 1978-79 to evaluate the movement of saline water and water-level changes in the aquifer in the upper part of the Hawthorn Formation in Cape Coral and adjacent areas and to collect salinity and water- level data from the underlying aquifer in the lower part of the Hawthorn Formation and upper part of the Tampa Formation and from the overlying surficial aquifer.

Page 7: UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR GEOLOGICAL … · lower part of the Hawthorn Formation and upper part of the Tampa Limestone; and (3) the surficial aquifer. The monitoring

The aquifer in the upper part of the Hawthorn Formation is locally designated as the upper Hawthorn aquifer. The aquifer in the lower part of the Hawthorn Formation and upper part of the Tampa Limestone is locally designated the lower Hawthorn aquifer. Although these aquifer names are not formally recognized by the U.S. Geological Survey, they are the local (Lee County, Florida) designations for the aquifers.

The purpose of this report is to present previously existing data as well as data collected from the monitoring well network during the initial phases of the investigation. The final phase of the investigation will evaluate the data.

HYDROLOGIC DATA COLLECTION NETWORK

Hydrologic data from the existing monitoring well network have been collected since 1978 for three aquifers that underlie Cape Coral and the adjacent area. The network of hydrologic monitoring sites now consists of 34 wells that tap the artesian upper Hawthorn aquifer, 6 wells that tap the artesian lower Hawthorn aquifer (fig.1), and 37 wells that tap the unconfined surficial aquifer (fig.2). Figure 3 shows the stratigraphic position and lithology of the aquifers (Sproul and others, 1972).

Water levels in five wells that tap the upper Hawthorn aquifer (fig. 1) were monitored by continuous recording devices. Water levels in selected wells that tap the three aquifers were measured monthly, bimonthly, or semiannually.

Water-quality samples were collected and analyzed semiannually from 1978-80 for wells that tap the upper Hawthorn aquifer. Back­ ground water-quality data for selected wells that tap the surficial aquifer and the lower Hawthorn aquifer were also collected.

Rainfall data (table 1) are collected at the City of Cape Coral's reverse osmosis plant in west Cape Coral and the lime water- treatment plant in south Cape Coral (fig. 1). Municipal ground- water pumpage data from the upper and lower Hawthorn aquifers at these plants (figs. 4 and 5) are also collected. Rainfall and pumpage data are supplied by the City of Cape Coral Utilities De­ partment.

WELL-CONSTRUCTION DATA

Construction data for 77 monitoring wells (figs. 1 and 2) are given in table 2. Also included are well numbers, aquifers tapped, lithologic logs obtained, and information on whether continuous water-level data are being recorded. The altitude of land surface, relative to sea level, is also given where known.

Each well is identified by two numbering systems: a local number and a unique number. The local well number consists of a sequence number. This system is used in Lee County for ease of identification; however, the numbers are not necessarily unique as the well number could be duplicated in areas other than Lee County. The unique identification numbers are used for computer storage of data and are based on the grid system of latitude and longitude. These numbers consist of 15 digits and provide the geographic lo­ cations of the wells. The first six digits represent degrees, minutes, and seconds of the latitude; the next seven represent the degrees, minutes, and seconds of the longitude. The last two dig­ its are a sequential number within a 1 second grid. For example, if the latitude-longitude for two or more sites are identical, sequential numbers 01, 02, or 03 are assigned to give each site a unique number.

WATER-QUALITY DATA

Water samples were collected from wells that tap the upper Hawthorn aquifer to detect changes in water quality. Since 1978, chloride concentrations were determined semiannually (table 3), and analyses for major ion concentrations were made annually for wells in the upper Hawthorn aquifer (table 4). Analyses for major ion concentrations made prior to 1978 are also included in table 4.

Water samples from wells that tap the surficial aquifer were analyzed for chloride concentrations and specific conductance (ta­ ble 5).

Water samples from wells that tap the lower Hawthorn aquifer were analyzed for major ion concentrations (table 6).

WATER-LEVEL FLUCTUATIONS

Selected water-level data from wells in the monitoring well network are illustrated in figures 4-19. Data used in the hydro- graphs are based on either monthly, bimonthly, or semiannual tape measurements for those wells without continuous water-level re­ corders. Wells with recorders (table 2) are represented by hydro- graphs of the daily high on the last day of each month. Monthly water-level fluctuations in well 2434 that taps the lower Hawthorn aquifer and well 581 that taps the upper Hawthorn aquifer are il­ lustrated with monthly municipal pumpage in figures 4 and 5. In addition to well 581, long-term fluctuations in the upper Hawthorn aquifer (1966-80) are represented by wells 702 and 2702 in figure 6. In 1978, well 702 was replaced by well 2702.

Water levels in the surficial aquifer, relative to those in the upper Hawthorn aquifer, are illustrated in figures 6-17 where data from the two aquifers are available at or near the same lo­ cation. Hydrographs of other wells that tap the lower Hawthorn aquifer are shown in figures 18 and 19.
