Abstract

Determines the feasibility and suitability of the Cambrian-Ordovician aquifer for storage and recovery of treated water from Lake Michigan. Provides data that will improve the ability to predict plugging rates and, therefore, improve design and operation of ASR facilities using this aquifer, which underlies a major portion of the midwestern United States.
