Call To Well Owners in the Wimberley Area

Call to Well Owners Interested in Groundwater Science,

An ad hoc group of local scientist needs your help in identifying water wells to obtain

groundwater level measurements in the Trinity Aquifer. The group is studying the 

hydrogeology of the gain and loss reaches of the Blanco River and possible ties

to flow from Jacob’s Well and in Cypress Creek. The study is an extension the 2010 

Hydrogeologic Atlas ofthe Hill Country Trinity Aquifer project and is intended to provide more 

data on the sustainability of the Trinity Aquifer. 

One critical part of the study is defining groundwater flow directions in the Trinity Aquifer

and the relationship to flow in the Blanco River. We need to measure water levels in as many 

wells as possible. We are identifying well owners that would allow us to measure the water level 

in their well on a one time basis during the end of February or March. 

The general area of interest is areas along or in the vicinity of FM 2325, Fischer Store Road, 

Wayside Drive Burnett Ranch Road, River Bluff Lane, John Knox Road and Days End Road 

and Cottonwood Lane.

If you are a well owner and would be willing to have your water level measured, please contact 

Doug Wierman at dawierman@aol.com.

Thanks you in advance for your help!
