Abstract:
The Lower Wisconsin River Valley (LWRV), from Prairie du Sac to Boscobel, is a broad level valley consisting of sandy soils over deep, coarse textured unlithified subsurface materials. This area represents one of the most hydrogeologically vulnerable settings in the state: a shallow sand and gravel aquifer under irrigated, coarse-textured soils.
