The Aquifer Characteristics layer also includes available hydraulic data (spring discharge rate, well yield, specific capacity, transmissivity, porosity, hydraulic conductivity, and storage coefficient) compiled from USGS provided data contained in WWDC River Basin Plans. Hydraulic property data are presented without WSGS review, or alteration, but have been compiled. Hydrostratigraphic designations may be altered to match contiguous aquifers with differing designations due to planning basin separation. Hydrostratigraphic units may be combined or not spatially assigned, please refer to the original hydraulic data plates in each report for more comprehensive aquifer information.<\/SPAN><\/P><\/DIV><\/DIV><\/DIV>", "summary": "The Aquifer Characteristics layer was compiled from extensive descriptions of hydrogeologic units prepared by the USGS groundwater technical memoranda contained in WWDC River Basin Plans for each of Wyoming's seven major drainage basins: http://waterplan.state.wy.us/basins/7basins.html.", "title": "Aquifer Characteristics", "tags": [ "Wyoming", "aquifer", "groundwater", "hydrogeology" ], "type": "", "typeKeywords": [], "thumbnail": "", "url": "", "minScale": 625000, "maxScale": 50000, "spatialReference": "", "accessInformation": "Created and published 2017, from following data sources:\nPowder/Tongue and Northeast River Basins Water Plan Update, Bear River Basin Water Plan Update, Groundwater Study, Platte River Basin Water Plan Update, Snake/Salt River Basin Water Plan Update, Wind/Bighorn River Basin Water Plan Update Groundwater Study, Available Groundwater Determination: WWDC Green River Basin Water Plan, and Geologic Map of Wyoming.\n\nhttp://waterplan.state.wy.us/basins/7basins.html.", "licenseInfo": "
