Question

Civil Engineering

In a pumping test of a confined aquifer, the steady state waterlevel in an observation well 10m from the pumping well was 38mODand was 42 mOD in another observation well 100m from the pumpingwell. The water levels in both wells were steady at 50mOD beforethe test began and then water was pumped at a constant rate of0.005m^3/s from the pumping well.

Estimate the aquifer transmissivity.

If the aquifer is 15m thick, estimate the hydraulic conductivityof the aquifer material

A third well in the same aquifer is 1000m away from the pumpingwell. Estimate the steady state drawdown in that well due topumping

Why will this test not give a value for the storativity of theaquifer?
