Summary

These data were released prior to the October 1, 2016 effective date for the USGS’s policy dictating the review, approval, and release of scientific data as referenced in USGS Survey Manual Chapter 502.8 Fundamental Science Practices: Review and Approval of Scientific Data for Release. A surficial and structural geologic map (SIR-2012-5002, fig. 2) was compiled to aid in the building of the three-dimensional geologic model. The map covers 327 square miles in north-central Oregon and south-central Washington, and completely contains the study area defined by the Mosier-Rock- Rowena Creek Watershed extents. Surficial and structural geologic maps, cross-sections, and stratigraphic interpretations of well logs from previous reports were [...]

Purpose

This geologic compilation was created to aid in construction of the geologic framework needed for modeling the Mosier Basin groundwater system. This dataset has been published in conjunction with SIR-2012-5002, Evaluation of Long-Term Water-Level Declines in Basalt Aquifers near Mosier, Oregon. These GIS files contain the surficial geology and geologic structure that are represented in figure 2 of SIR-2012-5002.
