Cycle 2 Ground Water Study Boundaries

This data set contains the polygon coverages that represent the boundaries of new and resampled land use studies (LUS), major aquifer studies (MAS), and principal aquifer studies (PAS) conducted during cycle 2 (2001-2011) of NAWQA.

Instructions on how to transfer the data set are in the metadata under Distribution_Information.
