The surficial aquifers in Midwestern states that border the Ohio River and are east of the Mississippi River are similar to those described previously, but are primarily of glacial origin. These aquifers are very productive (1,000 gallons per minute) and supply almost 50 percent of the fresh groundwater produced in the region. The course-grained aquifers are divided into two categories: • Deposits at or near the land surface occurring in stream and river valleys. • Deposits buried by a layer of fine-grained material that occur in <strong>for</strong>mer river valleys cut into bedrock and filled with coarse-grained glacial outwash. The sands and gravels range in thickness from less than 100 to over 600 ft in some buried bedrock valleys. Large yields are possible from wells completed in the glacial outwash aquifers that are hydraulically connected to streams, rivers, and lakes, and the wells are sufficiently close to the surfacewater body (Lloyd and Lyke, 1995). Communities located near rivers such as the Illinois, Kaskaski, Wabash, White, Kankakee, Maumee, Great Miami, and Scioto rivers could benefit from <strong>RBF</strong>. Valley-fill glacial aquifers also occur in the Northeastern United States. While extensive, the aquifer thickness and productivity is less than those occurring in Midwestern states (Olcott, 1995). In general, the valley-fill aquifers are less common along major streams and rivers, so the potential <strong>for</strong> <strong>RBF</strong> is considered lower than in the Midwestern United States. Alluvial aquifers occur along streams and rivers in the Northwestern states, but sparse population and relatively low water demands can be met through either surface-water intakes or groundwater wells. In the arid Southwest, few major rivers or streams are perennial, thereby limiting <strong>RBF</strong> potential. <strong>Water</strong> supplies in Gulf Coast states are met through groundwater withdrawals from productive regional aquifers and surface water. In the Piedmont region, water needs are met through surface water, as rainfall is usually adequate to meet demands and aquifers are fractured crystalline rock, which are not considered viable <strong>RBF</strong> areas.
