Summary

This dataset contains velocity and flow log data collected in 2004 for two Yucaipa Valley Water District (YVWD) public-supply wells, YVWD 55 and YVWD 56. Data were collected using the tracer-pulse method described in Izbicki and others (1999), in which a pulse of a rhodamine dye tracer is injected to a known depth in the well and the travel time of the tracer to a detector on the surface is measured. Velocity and cumulative flow are calculated from the dye-arrival times using methods described by Izbicki and others (1999). Flow for well YVWD 55 was calculated using the pump within the screened interval, which captured flow from above and below the pump intake. Flow for well YVWD 56 was calculated using the pump above the screened interval [...]

Purpose

The purpose of this data release is to identify how velocity logs and flow for two YVWD long-screened wells (YVWD 56 and YVWD 55) were created using data from the tracer-pulse method. Well-bore flow (velocity) logs were used to evaluate how flow into a well will respond to pumping. Velocity logs were used to evaluate the quantity and distribution of groundwater flowing into long screened public-supply wells.
