CONVERSION FACTORS

Except for chemical concentrations and temperature, figures for measurement in this report are given in inch-pound units. The following table contains factors for converting to metric units.

Multiply inch-pound units By To obtain metric units

foot 0.3048 metermile 1.609 kilometer

Sea level: In this report "sea level" refers to the National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929 (NGVD of 1929) a geodetic datum derived from a general adjustment of the first-order level nets of both the United States and Canada, formerly called "Mean Sea Level of 1929."

HYDROLOGIC DATA FOR THE SAN JUAN AND ANIMAS RIVER VALLEYS

IN THE FARMINGTON, AZTEC, BLOOMFIELD, AND CEDAR HILL

AREAS, SAN JUAN COUNTY, NEW MEXICO

By Douglas P. MeAda and Shareen G. She1ton

ABSTRACT

In July 1985, the U.S. Geological Survey initiated a 3-year study in San Juan County, New Mexico, to determine the concentrations of chemical constituents in the ground water in the San Juan and Animas River valleys and to determine the direction and rate of ground-water flow and its relation to river stage. The study was conducted in cooperation with the San Juan County Commission and the New Mexico Oil Conservation Division. This report is a compilation of the data that was collected during the first 1^ years of the study. The report includes well records for 51 wells and water levels from 23 wells, hydrographs from 4 observation wells and 1 river-stage site, and available chemical analyses from 50 wells and 14 surface-water sites.

INTRODUCTION

There are numerous domestic wells in the valleys along the San Juan and Animas Rivers upstream from Farmington, New Mexico. The potential for contamination of ground water exists because of possible seepage from irrigation water, septic tanks, and oil-disposal pits.

In July 1985, the U.S. Geological Survey initiated a 3-year study in San Juan County, New Mexico, to determine the concentrations of chemical constituents in the ground water along the San Juan and Animas River valleys and to determine the direction and rate of ground-water flow and its relation to river stage. The study was conducted in cooperation with the San Juan County Commission and the New Mexico Oil Conservation Division. The purpose of this report is to disseminate data that were collected during the first 1^ years of the study.

The study areas include the San Juan River valley from Farmington to Bloomfield, the Animas River valley from Farmington to Aztec, and the Animas River valley near Cedar Hill (fig. 1).

WELL-NUMBERING SYSTEM

The system of numbering wells in this report is based on the common subdivision of land into townships, ranges, and sections in the Federal land- survey system. The well numbers consist of four parts separated by periods (fig. 2). The first part is the township number, the second part is the range number, and the third part is the section number. The letters N (north) or S (south) in the township number indicate the direction from the New Mexico base line, and the letters E (east) or W (west) in the range number indicate the direction from the New Mexico principal meridian. Hence, the number 30N.12W.23 is assigned to any well located in sec. 23, T. 30 N., R. 12 W.

The fourth part of the well number indicates the tract within the section where the well is located. The method of numbering the tracts within the section is shown in figure 2. For this purpose, the section is divided into four quarters, numbered 1, 2, 3, and 4, in the normal reading order, for the northwest, northeast, southwest, and southeast quarters, respectively. The first digit of the fourth part gives the quarter section, which is a tract of 160 acres. Each quarter is subdivided in the same manner so that the first and second digits together define the 40-acre tract and the third digit defines the 10-acre tract. Additional digits can be used in the same manner to further divide the tracts. For example, well 30N.12W.23.142 is in the NEi of the SEi of the NW* of sec. 23, T. 30 N., R. 12 W. (fig. 2).

PRESENTATION OF THE DATA

Seven observation wells and one stream-stage gage were installed along the San Juan River near Hammond Bridge for this study. The location of these wells and the stream-stage gage is shown in figure 3. Four of the observation wells (PN-1, PS-1, PS-2, and PS-3) and the stream-stage gage were fitted with water-level recorders. Water levels measured in the observation wells and the depths of each well are shown in table 1. Hydrographs from the four recorder wells and the stream-stage gage are shown in figure 4. Water levels at 15- minute intervals from these recorder stations are available from the U.S. Geological Survey's National Water-Data Storage and Retrieval System (WATSTORE).

Records of wells inventoried during the study are listed in table 2. Chloride concentration and specific conductance of water from the privately owned wells in the Farmington-Aztec-Bloomfield area and the well locations are shown in figure 5.

Records of surface-water sites where samples were collected are listed in table 3. Chloride concentration and specific conductance of water from those sites in the Farmington-Aztec-Bloomfield area and the site locations are shown in figure 6.

Water samples from six wells and one surface-water site were analyzed for the purgeable organic compounds listed in table 4. The wells sampled are noted in table 2 by an asterisk next to the location number. The surface- water site was Cedar Ditch at Cedar Hill and is noted by an asterisk in table 3. The detection limit in the chemical analysis for these compounds is 3.0 micrograms per liter. None of the compounds listed in table 4 were detected in any of the water samples.
