Summary
This data release contains water level data and analytical results from slug tests performed at 12 wells at Badger Army Ammunition Plant (BAAP), Sauk County, Wisconsin. Water-level data, representing the displacement and recovery of groundwater levels with time in wells during slug tests, are provided in comma delimited files. Analytical results are provided in AQUTESOLV files (*.aqt files) and *.pdf summary files. The methods used and results from this work are summarized in the USGS Scientific Investigation report by Haserodt and others, 2023: https://doi.org/10.3133/sir20235040.

Rising-head and falling-head slug tests were performed during November 18-19, 2020 at select wells at Badger Army Ammunition Plant (BAAP) in Sauk County, Wisconsin, to estimate horizontal hydraulic conductivity (Kh). These tests were performed to supplement existing Kh estimates and to (1) improve the spatial coverage of Kh estimates across BAAP, with particular emphasis on adding Kh estimates in areas down-gradient of contamination that are data sparse; and (2) estimate Kh in shallow-deep well pairs to evaluate vertical Kh heterogeneity in unconsolidated aquifer materials.
