In the Field
Wellhead Protection — Municipal Well Field in Central Ohio
Bennett & Williams developed a groundwater flow model for a wellhead protection program studying a municipal well field in central Ohio. Using an integrated modeling and calibration process, the team delineated the one and five-year capture zones for a 3.9 million gallon per day well field. The well field draws from a sand and gravel aquifer in a buried valley system, and Studio was used to develop a five-layer model incorporating complex boundary conditions and material parameters. The modeling results supported a groundwater monitoring program to evaluate the potential for an existing contamination plume to migrate into the well field capture zone. The calibrated model was used to evaluate various scenarios under different pumping conditions.
"Studio allows us to effectively communicate with project members having different backgrounds such as geologists, hydrogeologists, environmental engineers, and computer programmers, and with our clients who are less familiar with subsurface structure and groundwater modeling. I regard it as a 'must have' product for any complex environmental studies that require not only accurate scientific results, but also realistic visualization and presentation."
