Texas Board of Water Engineers

November 1954

This bulletin contains measurements of the depth to vater in feet below

land-surface datum in 53 wells in Culberson County, 28 .....ells in Hudspeth County,

and 7 .....ells in Jeff Davis County. It is one of a series of publications by the

Texas Board of Water Engineers Which contain measurements of the vater levels in

selected observation .....ells made as a part of the cooperative program of ground-

.....ater investigations throughout the State by the United States Geological Survey

and the Texas Board of Water Engineers. The records cover a period from 1943

through May 1954; ho.....ever, no measurements .....ere made prior to 1948 in Hudspeth

County and no measurements were made during the years 1944-47 in Culberson and

Jeff Davis Counties.

During 1948-50, an inventory of irrigation .....ells .....as made 1n the Dell City

area of Hudspeth County and in the Lobo Flats area of Culberson and Jeff Davis

Counties. The results of these two investigations were published by the Texas

Board of Water Engineers as Bulletin 5004 in 1950 and Bulletin 5102 1n 1951,

respectively. Water-level measurements made during the time of the inventories

are included in this bulletin.

-2-

If more than one water-level measurement 15 made during the month, only the

highest water level is given in this report. The accanpanying maps shoil the

locations of the observation wells. Hydrographs shoving the fluctuation of the

water level in a fev selected wells and the precipitation at a nearby Weather

Bureau station are given for each county. Records of water wells, geologic data,

pumpage data, and discussion of water levels are given in the following publications.
