Summary

An existing three-dimensional model (MODFLOW-2000) by Petkewich and Campbell (2007) was updated to simulate potential changes in groundwater flow and groundwater-level conditions caused by injecting reclaimed water into the Middendorf aquifer in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina. The model was recalibrated to conditions from 1900 to 2008. Simulations included a Base Case and two injection scenarios. Maximum pumping rates were simulated as 6.65, 8.50, and 10.5 million gallons per day for the Base Case, Scenario 1, and Scenario 2, respectively. The Base Case simulation represents a non-injection estimate of the year 2050 groundwater levels for comparison purposes for the two injection scenarios. For Scenarios 1 and 2, the simulated injection [...]

Purpose

The model was created to simulate the effects of the proposed injection of reclaimed-water in the Mount Pleasant, South Carolina well fields. The development of the model input and output files included in this data release are documented in U.S. Geological Survey Scientific Investigations Report 2009-5185 (https://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2009/5185/).
