In the northern half of the county, within the larger creek and river valleys, most drilled wells will produce enough water for a domestic supply at depths of less than 100 feet. In the rest of Boyle County, wells located in the larger creek valleys will produce enough water for a domestic supply, except during dry weather. In upland areas, 85 percent of the county, most drilled wells will not produce enough water for a dependable domestic supply; some wells along drainage lines may produce enough water, except during dry weather. Through the county, groundwater is hard or very hard and may contain salt or hydrogen sulfice, especially at depths greater than 100 feet. |
