GEOLOGY AND GROUND-WATER RESOURCES OF THE WINTER GARDEN DISTRICT, TEXAS, 1948

By SAMUEL F. TURNER, THOMAS W. KORINSON, and WALTER N. WHITE

Revised by DONALD E. OUTLAW, W. O. GEORGE, and others

ABSTRACT

The Winter Garden district, as described in this report, includes all of Dimmit and Zavala Counties and the eastern part of Maverick County a total of about 3,200 square miles. The fleldwork for the investigation was completed in 1948.

The district, famed for its production of garden vegetables, is in the West Gulf Coastal Plain and is drained chiefly by the Nueces River and its tributaries. The maximum relief is about 550 feet. The average annual rainfall is about 20 inches.

The rocks exposed in the Winter Garden district are mostly sedimentary and from oldest to youngest are as follows: The San Miguel, Olmos, and Bscondido formations of Cretaceous age; the Kincaid and Indio formations, the Carrizo sand, and the Mount Selman and Cook Mountain formations of Tertiary age; the Uvalde gravel of Tertiary (?) age; and the Leona formation of Quaternary age. None of the rocks in the district older than the Indio formation contain fresh water and the Uvalde gravel is devoid of water.

The Indio formation is composed predominantly of thin^bedded and laminated clayey sand and sandy shale. It also includes some thick layers of clay, both lenses and persistent layers of sandstone, a few beds of lignite, and numerous calcareous, arenaceous, and ferruginous concretions.

The Carrizo sand consists of beds of massive, commonly crossbedded, loosely cemented, remarkably clean sand. It is composed chiefly of grains of pure quartz that range from a fraction of a millimeter to slightly more than 5 millimeters in diameter.

The Bigford member of the Mount Selman formation consists chiefly of clay but also contains subordinate amounts of sandy clay, sandstone, beds of lignite, beds of yellow limestone, and some thin beds of hematite.

The post-Bigford beds of the Mount Selinan formation are similar litho- logically to the Bigford member but are composed principally of clay and a few relatively thin layers of sandstone and limestone.

The Cook Mountain formation consists chiefly of partly consolidated medium- grained sand and sandstone.

The formations dip about 60 feet per mile to the south and southeast, a slope that is somewhat greater than that of the land surface; thus, progressively younger beds are exposed from northwest to southeast. The Uvalde gravel and Leona formation are distributed unevenly over the beveled edges of the older rocks. The structure is modified by a broad syncline trending slightly south of east through the center of Zavala County and a broad anticline passing south-

eastward through Carrizo Springs. Several minor faults were mapped, but the faults probably have little effect on the occurrence and movement of ground water.

The principal water-bearing formations in the district are the Carrizo sand and the Leona formation. Minor water-bearing formations include the Indio formation and the Bigford member of the Mount Selman formation. The Car­ rizo sand and the Leona formation both yield water suitable in quantity and quality for irrigation. The Leona is the less important of the two owing to its limited thickness and areal extent.

The Carrizo sand crops out in a crescent-shaped band that roughly parallels the western, northwestern, and northern edges of the district. Wells tapping the Carrizo sand provided about 27,000 acre-feet of water to irrigate about 27,000 acres in the district in the irrigation season of 1929-30, about 22,000 acre- feet of water to irrigate about 24,000 acres in the irrigation season of 1937-38, and about 52,000 acre-feet of water to irrigate about 42,000 acres in the irrigation season of 1947-48. The withdrawals caused declines of artesian pressure in the artesian area of the Oarrizo sand ranging from 0.2 foot to 42.4 feet between 1947 and 1948, and water levels in some wells declined about 90 feet between 1930 and 1948.

Laboratory tests of samples and pumping tests indicate that the Carrizo sand has an average permeability of about 200 gallons per day per square foot and an average transmissibility of about 30,000-40,000 gallons per day per foot. The tests showed a storage coefficient of about 0.0001 in the artesian area; it is conservatively estimated to be about 0.1 in the outcrop area.

The Leona formation crops out in narrow strips adjacent to the Nueces and Leona Rivers. About 6,800 acre-feet of water was pumped from the Leona for­ mation in Zavala County to irrigate about 5,100 acres in 1947-48. The with­ drawal resulted in the temporary failure of several irrigation wells in the Batesville area.

Records and locations of more than 1,100 wells, water-level measurements made in representative observation wells from 1929 through 1948, and hydro- graphs from 6 representative wells are illustrated and tabulated in the report.

The quality of water varies between wide limits in all formations. Generally, water from the Leona formation is the best for irrigation and the least min­ eralized. Water in the Carrizo becomes softer downdip as the percent sodium increases. Water from the Bigford member of the Mount Selman formation and the Indio formation in parts of the district is too highly mineralized for most uses. The investigation revealed that the contamination of wells in the Carrizo sand by mineralized water from the Bigford member of the Mount Selman formation is a local problem and that up to 1948 no general contamination had occurred in the Carrizo sand.

INTRODUCTION

LOCATION AND GENERAL FEATURES OP THE DISTRICT

The Winter Garden district is in a semiarid part of southern Texas, but large supplies of ground water that is suitable for irriga­ tion, together with fertile soils and infrequent killing frosts, make possible the growing of garden vegetables. The Winter Garden dis­ trict is one of the principal sources of winter vegetables in the United States; the chief products are spinach, onions, carrots, and

INTRODUCTION 3

tomatoes. It is reported that more spinach is grown in the Winter Garden district than in any other place of equal area in the world. During the summer the irrigated crops include onion and tomato plants, grain sorghum, and cotton.

The "Winter Garden district as defined in this report comprises about 3,200 square miles in southern Texas and includes Dimmit and Zavala Counties and the eastern part of Maverick County. (See fig. 1.) Carrizo Springs, near the center of the district, is about 100 miles southwest of San Antonio and 40 miles east of the Mexican border at Eagle Pass. The district extends shortly beyond the irrigated areas in order to include that part of the outcrop of the Carrizo sand that is hydrologically important to the district.

The principal towns in Dimmit County and their populations in 1950 are as follows: Carrizo Springs (the county seat), 4,316; Asher- ton, 2,425; Big Wells, 1,077; Catarina, 380; and Brundage, 50. In Zavala County they are as follows: Crystal City (the county seat), 7,198; La Pryor, 500; and Batesville, 250. Maverick County has no towns within the area of this report.

The Winter Garden district is served by the San Antonio, Uvalde, and Gulf Kailroad Co., and the Asherton and Gulf Eailroad Co. Paved highways in the area include U. S. Highway 85 extending east and west, and U. S. Highway 83 running north and south. Secondary public and private roads reach nearly all parts of the district.

PHYSIOGRAPHIC FEATURES AND HISTORY

The Winter Garden district lies in the northwestern part of the West Gulf Coastal Plain, which as defined by Hill (1901, p. 48) extends in Texas from the Gulf of Mexico to the Balcones scarp. Within this part of the West Gulf Coastal Plain there are two main terraces: one relatively high terrace underlain by remnants of the Uvalde gravel and a lower and broader terrace, underlain by the Leona formation. Between these terraces are low, approximately parallel asymmetrical hills having gentle slopes in the direction of the dip and steeper slopes in the opposite direction. These hills trend north and northeast parallel to the strike of the Leona formation, which dips generally east and southeast. The crests of the hills are formed by the more resistant beds in the formations. The relatively flat areas between the hills are suitable for irrigation. The total relief in the district is about 550 feet, the altitude ranging from about 400 feet in the eastern part of Dimmit County to 964 feet on Batesville Hill, about 9 miles northwest of Batesville (fig. 2).

The terrace remnants formed by the Uvalde gravel are relatively high, narrow divides; and most of the relief in the district has resulted from degradation by the streams that cut through the Uvalde into the underlying formations.

During the latter part of the Cenozoic era, the Winter Garden district was probably a relatively flat land tilted slightly to the south and southeast. At some time that was probably within the Pleistocene (Weeks, 1941, p. 932; Trowbridge, 1932, pi. 7) epoch, streams began cutting through the Uvalde gravel, carrying with them and depositing the materials of the Leona formation. The upper surface of the Leona formation forms broad flats which slope toward the Nueces, Frio, and Leona Eivers. These flats form part of the Nueces Basin, of Trowbridge (1932, p. 14-21). Near its outer margin the Leona ter­ race is 74-100 feet above stream level. Near the Nueces Eiver it is commonly 30 feet above the stream, but where the stream is cutting against a bank .composed of the Leona formation, this height may be considerably greater.

The greater part of the district is drained by the Nueces Eiver, but the northeastern part is drained by the Frio and Leona Eivers, and the extreme southwestern part by tributaries of the Eio Grande.

The larger tributaries of the Nueces River in the district are Turkey, Chaparrosa, Elm, Picoso, Pena, Carrizo, Pendencia, and San Roque Creeks.

The Nueces River is intermittent in the northern part of the area, but from a point 4 miles southeast of La Pryor, perennial flow is maintained for a distance of about 5 miles by springs issuing from

6 GEOLOGY AND GROUND WATER, WINTER GARDEN, TEXAS

the bed of the river. This flow is used for irrigation in the southern part of Zavala County and in the northern part of Dimmit County. The greater part of the total discharge of the river, however, is in the form of flood runoff. The Leona River in southern Uvalde and northern Zavala Counties has a perennial flow which is maintained by the flow of springs. All other streams in the district carry water only during brief periods after heavy rains.

The upper reaches of the streams are still degrading the Edwards Plateau north of the district and have cut through the Leona forma­ tion, exposing older formations in the stream channels. In the lati­ tude of Crystal City, however, the main streams are aggrading and showing evidence of old age. An area, locally called the Bayuca, consists of several thousand acres of lowland north along Turkey Creek from a point 4 to 6 miles west of Crystal City. The Bayuca is densely covered with vegetation and in time of flood is covered by a few feet of water which is in part backwater from Comanche Lake. Espantosa Lake, northeast of Carrizo Springs, is a partly abandoned meander of the Nueces River.

In the area along the Rio Grande that Trowbridge (1932, p. 14-21) called the breaks of the Rio Grande, the surface is sharply dissected, and the area is not suitable for irrigation. This area includes the southwestern part of Dimmit County.

CLIMATE

In the Winter Garden district the winters are generally mild; frosts occur occasionally but seldom cause serious damage to the more resistant vegetables and fruits. In 1947 and 1948, however, damaging frosts occurred in November. The summers are hot but the heat is tempered somewhat by breezes from the Gulf of Mexico. According to records of the Texas Agricultural Experiment Station at Winter Haven in Dimmit County the mean annual temperature during the 18-year period beginning January 1931 and ending December 1948 was 7l.9°F (fig. 3), whereas according to records of the United States Weather Bureau at La Pryor in Zavala County, the mean temperature during the 27-year period 1915-35 and 1943-48 was 71.3°F.

The mean monthly evaporation at Winter Haven was 4.85 inches during the 18-year period 1931-48 (fig. 3). The mean monthly evapo­ ration ranged from a minimum of 1.88 inches in January and Decem­ ber to a maximum of 8.01 inches in July.

In most years irrigation is required for the successful production of crops in the Winter Garden district. Generally some rain falls in at least 10 months of each year, but the precipitation in summer

It is lightest, therefore, when it is most needed for winter crops (figs. 3 and 4, and tables 1-5). According to records of the U. S. Weather Bureau, the mean annual rainfall at Carrizo Springs for the 27-year period was 21.79 inches (fig. 4); at Big Wells the average precipita-

tion for the 32-year period was 21.05 inches (table 1); at La Pry or the average precipitation for the 23-year period was 21.71 inches (table 2); at Uvalde, 21 miles north of La Pryor, the average pre­ cipitation for the 51-year period was 24.01 inches (table 3); and at Eagle Pass, 44 miles west of Carrizo Springs, the average precipita­ tion for the 70-year period was 20.83 inches (table 4). The annual precipitation varies within comparatively wide limits. At La Pryor it ranged from 6.51 inches in 1917 to 42.01 inches in 1919, or from less than one-third to almost twice the 23-year average. At Big Wells it ranged from 5.84 inches in 1917 to 35.49 inches in 1919, or from less than 1/3 to about 1% times the 32-year average. At Carrizo Springs it ranged from 7.37 inches in 1917 to 33.87 inches in 1931, or from about 1/3 to more than 11/2 times the 27-year average. At Eagle Pass it ranged from 7.03 inches in 1893 to 44.36 inches in 1900, or from about one-third to more than twice the 70-year average.

INTRODUCTION 17

The annual trend of precipitation may be shown by a cumulative- departure curve for data collected at Carrizo Springs for the 21- year period 1928-48. (See fig. 5;) This is not the total period of record at the station, but it is the longest continuous period; no rec­ ords are available from 1918 to 1927. During a 3-year period 1928- 30, the precipitation was below normal and throughout 1931-32 it was above normal. From 1933 to 1938 the cumulative-departure curve was directed downward, indicating generally deficient precipitation, although in 1936 it was above normal. In 1939 the direction of the curve was reversed, but not until 1946 was the previous deficiency fully made up. During the 21 years of record, precipitation was be­ low normal in 9 years, above normal in 11 years, and about normal for 1 year.

PURPOSE AND SCOPE OF THE INVESTIGATION

The use of water from a flowing well for irrigation as early as 1884 in the Winter Garden district was reported by Koesler (1890, p. 287). Large-scale pumping from the Carrizo sand commenced during the middle twenties and as a result the artesian pressure de­ clined rapidly. In 1929 considerable apprehension arose among local water users as to the permanence of the underground-water supplies in the Winter Garden district. As a result the district was one of the first selected for study when a statewide investigation of the ground-water resources of Texas was begun by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Texas Board of Water Engineers.

In 1929-30 W. N. White, A. G. Fiedler, P. P. Livingston, A. N. Sayre, S. F. Turner, T. W. Kobinson, and Walter Lynch began vari­ ous phases of an intensive investigation of the water resources of the Winter Garden district.

The broad phases of the investigation included the study of the geology and the water-bearing properties of the different rock forma­ tions in the Winter Garden district, the rate and direction of move­ ment of ground water, the mutual interference between irrigation wells, the effects of withdrawals on artesian pressures, and the ulti­ mate effects of ground-water withdrawals on the water resources of the district.

The investigation also covered other phases of the ground-water problem, such as the source of salt-water contamination in irrigation wells in parts of the district, the quality of the water that might be expected in different localities at different depths, and the depths to the chief water-bearing beds. In addition to the study of the ground-water supplies for irrigation, the investigation was designed to reveal all sources of ground water, including small supplies suit­ able for domestic or stock purposes.

INTRODUCTION 19

The field investigation included an inventory of wells, pumpage, and land irrigated. Determinations of chloride content of ground waters were made in the field, and samples of water were collected for more detailed analysis by the Geological Survey in the laboratory at Austin, Tex. About 90 rock samples from wells and cores cut from outcrops of sands were collected for tests that were made in the Washington, D.C., laboratory of the Geological Survey. Pumping tests by the method of Thiem (1906) were made to determine the permeability of the Carrizo sand. About 60 wells were selected for periodic observation of water levels, about 46 of which have been measured at least once a year for a period of 20 years. Approximately 500 miles of levels were run to determine the altitudes of observation wells. A technique was developed for the detection of leaks in well casings by chemical and electrical methods. The areal extent of the Carrizo sand was mapped in order to estimate the recharge area, the thickness, and the altitude of the formation.

In February 1931 a comprehensive summary of the results of the investigation was prepared by White and Meinzer (1931). The investigation of salt-water leaks in irrigation wells that was started by Livingston and Fiedler was continued by Liyingston and Lynch (1937). In 1938 Turner and Robinson prepared sections on a report on the district, but because of insufficient funds and the need of their services elsewhere, the manuscript was not completed.

In 1938-39 Livingston, assisted by Raymond Lynch, returned to the Winter Garden district to make additional tests for salt-water leaks in casings. During the same period G. H. Cromack obtained additional well records. In 1940 the well data obtained by Turner, Robinson, Livingston, Cromack, Walter Lynch, and Raymond Lynch were published (Robinson, Turner, and Cromack, 1940). A special investigation was made in the Leona River valley by Livingston (1947) to determine the relationship of ground-water and surface- water flow.

In 1947-48, after a period in which little was done on the project because of World War II, D. E. Outlaw brought the inventories up to date, made additional geologic studies which included strati- graphic correlation by means of electric logs, made additional hydro- logic studies which included pumping tests, and revised the data of previous manuscripts. During the early part of this period, H. M. Babcock spent 3 months in the field obtaining hydrologic data, and R. W. Sundstrom supervised one of the pumping tests. W. O. George and others brought the report to its present form in the period 1949-56, the work on it having to be interrupted from tim6 to time in order that other urgent projects could be completed. Information on the development of water from the Carrizo sand, the principal

20 GEOLOGY AND GROUND WATER, WINTER GARDEN, TEXAS

aquifer of the Winter Garden district, during the period through 1955 is given in an open-file report prepared by the Geological Survey in cooperation with the Texas Board of Water Engineers and the Nueces Eiver Conservation and Reclamation District. The report was written by E. A. Moulder and is entitled, "Development of Ground Water from the Carrizo Sand and Wilcox Group in Dimmit, Zavala, Maverick, Frio, Atascosa, Medina, Bexar, Live Oak, McMullen, La Salle, and Webb Counties, Tex."

Both published and unpublished data from all phases of the inves­ tigations have been drawn upon in the compilation of this report. Descriptions of 1,196 wells, drillers' logs of 82 wells, records of water levels for 46 wells, and chemical analyses for water from 177 wells are given in tables 9, 10, 11, and 12, respectively. The locations of the wells are shown on plate 1.

The investigations were carried on under the administrative direc­ tions of O. E. Meinzer and A. N. Sayre, successive chiefs of the Ground Water Branch of the U.S. Geological Survey. The field- work was done under the supervision of W. N. White, W. L. Broad- hurst, and E. W. Sundstrom, successively in charge of ground-water investigations in Texas. A large part of the revision of the manu­ script was done under the direction and with the assistance of W. O. George and W. N. White of the Geological Survey.

PREVIOUS INVESTIGATIONS AND REPORTS

Among the early reports that include data on ground water in the Winter Garden district are those by Hutson (1898, p. 50-54), Hill (1901), and Taylor (1902; 1907, p. 51-52). With the exception of Hill's work, these reports were based on data obtained by cor­ respondence and brief visits to the field.

Ground-water investigations that include studies in adjacent areas of parts of the ground-water reservoirs found also in the Winter Garden district have been made by Lonsdale (1935), Sayre (1936), and Lonsdale and Day (1937).

Of the purely geologic investigations, the works of Trowbridge (1923 and 1932) and Deussen (1924) are the most comprehensive. Trowbridge (1932) contains many references to earlier geologic publications pertaining to the Winter Garden district.

WELL-NUMBERING SYSTEM

The wells were numbered according to their location. The 30- minute quadrangles were assigned letters in order, beginning with the letter G at the upper left-hand corner (pi. 1). Each 30-minute quadrangle was subdivided into 10-minute quadrangles that were

HISTORY OF IRRIGATION 21

numbered consecutively, again beginning at the upper left-hand corner. Within each 10-minute quadrangle the wells were numbered consecutively as inventoried. For example, well N5-48 in Crystal City is in the 30-minute quadrangle designated N, in the fifth 10- minute quadrangle of N, and is the 48th well investigated in the 10-minute quadrangle.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

The writers are indebted to a number of well drillers, including the firms of Cribbs and Davidson (later Ira Cribbs), W. D. Mor- rison, E. L. Kite, O. F. Webb, and others who furnished logs of wells and collected samples of well cuttings; to the property owners who allowed the use of their wells for observation purposes; to the county officials of Dimmit and Zavala Counties who furnished office space without charge for several years; and to the California Pack­ ing Corp. and G. E. Whitney who allowed pumping tests to be made on their wells. Grateful acknowledgment is made to F. M. Getzendaner, consulting geologist, who made available the results of his extensive geologic studies in the district. L. W. Stephenson and Julia Gardner of the Geologic Division of the Geological Survey were consulted on geologic problems. Many others aided in one way or another throughout the extensive period of investigation, and their names are not intentionally omitted.

HISTORY OF IRRIGATION

The first recorded attempt at irrigation in the Winter Garden district was in 1876 when a dam built on the Leona Eiver 2^ miles north of Batesville in Zavala County provided sufficient water to irrigate 500 acres of corn, oats, cane, hay, cotton, fruits, and truck- garden produce (Taylor, 1902, p. 67). The first flowing well in the Winter Garden district was completed at Carrizo Springs in 1884 at a depth of 165 feet (Eoesler, 1890, p. 287). The owner was S. D. Frazier, and the flow of about 40 gallons a minute was used for domestic purposes and for the irrigation of about 4 acres of land.

By 1898 Hutson (1898, p. 51) reported a considerable amount of irrigation by windmills at Batesville and Carrizo Springs, some irrigation from flowing artesian wells at Carrizo Springs, and the irrigation of about 500 acres from flowing wells in Zavala County. Many of the wells did not penetrate the full thickness of the sand, and most did not yield enough water for large-scale irrigation. At this time, 1898, it was not known that larger yields could be obtained by deeper penetration.

The development of surface-water supplies for irrigation was ac­ celerated about 1910 when two dams were constructed on the Nueces

22 GEOLOGY AND GROUND WATER, WINTER GARDEN, TEXAS

Kiver: the Taylor Dam at Bermuda about 7 miles east of Carrizo Springs and the Boynton Dam about 4 miles southeast of Crystal City. Bowie (1905, p. 456-457) states that the system at the Taylor Dam could irrigate 175 acres, 100 by gravity and 75 by pumping. He also states that 30 wells were reported to be supplying water for the irrigation of 1,026 acres in the vicinity of Carrizo Springs.

By 1907 Taylor (1907, p. 51-52) reported more than 60 flowing artesian wells in Dimmit County and 26 wells in Zavala County which were being used for stock and irrigation. By 1910, according to the Census Bureau, there were 250 irrigation wells in Dimmit and Zavala Counties, 35 of which were flowing wells.

In 1918 the Rancho de la Palma Dam was constructed about 5 miles northeast of Carrizo Springs to provide water for irrigation. The dam is at the lower end of Espantosa Lake, an old channel of the Nueces River which carries a part of the flow only when the river is at flood stage. During the decade 1920-29, however, ground water was used for irrigation more extensively than was surface water. This probably resulted from the increased efficiency of modern deep-well turbine pumps and the lack of storage space for surface water.

During 1929-30 a total of 27,000 acres was irrigated with ground water from 403 wells. In addition, 50 irrigation wells were equipped for pumping but were idle. During the same period about 13,000 acres was irrigated with both river and well water by 50 irrigation plants. At 29 of these plants standby wells were used when surface water was not available, and about 15 percent of the water was sup­ plied from the standby wells.

A slight decline in the use of wells for irrigation took place in the 1930's because of unfavorable market conditions and the in­ creased cost of lifting the water owing to the decline in artesian pressure. During the 1937-38 pumping season 394 irrigation wells were in operation and 27 wells were equipped but idle. The upward trend was resumed in the 1940's, and by the 1947-48 irrigation season 480 active wells were irrigating approximately 49,000 acres of land. In addition 96 wells were equipped for irrigation but were inactive. These figures include acreage and wells for both the Carrizo sand and the Leona formation.

In 1948 the Zavala-Dimmit Counties Water Control and Improve­ ment District No. 1 completed a dam on the Nueces River about 6!/o miles north of Crystal City providing storage for 7,590 acre-feet of water. A total of about 120 surface-water pumping plants in the two counties irrigated approximately 17,000 acres during the 1947- 48 season. The total irrigated area in the Winter Garden district thus was about 66,000 acres.

GEOLOGY

GENERAL GEOLOGY

The rocks exposed in the Winter Garden district consist chiefly of clay, shale, sand, and sandstone, but in some places they include lenticular bodies of limestone and beds of gravel and silt. The oldest rocks exposed at the surface in the district are sandstone, shale, and limestone of Late Cretaceous age, which crop out in the extreme northwestern part of Zavala County and in a part of eastern Mav­ erick County. The Cretaceous rocks were deposited in a shallow sea which was an embayment of the Gulf of Mexico. Beds of clay, shale, sand, and sandstone of early Tertiary age overlie the Cretaceous rocks and crop out at the surface in most of the district. The Tertiary rocks were deposited as detrital material at or near an oscillating shoreline. Gravel of Pliocene(?) age caps most of the hills and ridges. The gravel is the remnant of extensive flood-plain deposits laid down on the beveled surface of the older rocks. Gravel, sand, and silt of Quaternary age occur as valley fill and terraced deposits along all major streams. The deposits have been slightly tilted and broken by faults resulting from earth movements that have taken place intermittently since middle Cretaceous(?) time.

The relative position and thickness of the geologic formations and brief descriptions of their lithologic and water-bearing prop­ erties are given on page 24. In the present investigation only the outcrop pattern of the Carrizo sand and the Leona formation was mapped. (See pis. 1 and 4.) The cross sections (pis. 2 and 3) show the strata in profile. The Uvalde gravel, generally found on the tops of hills, was not mapped.

The Cretaceous and Tertiary formations crop out in crescent- shaped bands that roughly parallel the western and northern edges of the district. A traverse of the district from northwest to southeast crosses the outcrops of progressively younger formations. The rocks dip southeastward at an angle slightly greater than the slope of the surface; therefore, a formation that crops out in the north­ western part of the district will be penetrated at increasingly greater depths in wells toward the southeast.

The Carrizo sand is the chief water-bearing formation in the district. It supplies most of the ground water used for irrigation, public supply, and industrial purposes. The outcrop area of the Carrizo sand is shown on plates 1 and 4. Moderate quantities of ground water are obtained from the Leona formation, and small quantities from the Bigford member of the Mount Selman formation and the Indio formation. Water-bearing formations older than the Indio generally contain highly mineralized water and are too deeply

buried to be practical sources of water supply in the Winter Garden district.

STRUCTURAL GEOLOGY

The Winter Garden district is in the region where the dominantly easterly structural trends of the Balcones fault zone meet and blend with the dominantly northward-trending structural features of the folded areas of Mexico. The resulting structural features are broad, gentle flexures. The dips are low, generally not more than 60 feet to the mile, but in some places they are as much as 150 feet to the mile. The regional dip increases from the youngest to the oldest formations. The dip in northern Zavala County is southward, whereas in southern Zavala County and western Dimmit County the dip generally is eastward. As a result, in northwestern Zavala County the outcrops of the formations make a broad right-angle turn. (See pis. 1 and 4.)

Trowbridge (1932, p. 237) observed and named the La Pryor syn- cline and the Carrizo Springs anticline. The outcrop of the Carrizo sand swings in a broad arc around the northwestern end of the La Pryor syncline, which plunges gently southeast from an area about 15 miles south of the northwest corner of Zavala County. The syncline is clearly shown in the cross section on plate 2. The strata show no appreciable synclinal thickening; hence, the folding was evidently post-Carrizo in age.

The axis of the Carrizo Springs anticline passes through Carrizo Springs. (See pis. 1 and 4.) In Dimmit County the axis trends nearly east, but in Maverick County it probably swings northwest and may be an extension of the Chittim anticline described by Vanderpool (1930, p. 252). The anticlinal structure is shown by the position of the outcrop of the Carrizo sand, which in the vicinity of Carrizo Springs swings several miles east of its position to the north and south.

Numerous subsurface and surface normal faults have been mapped hi the Winter Garden district. The presence of most of the subsurface faults is inferred from shortened sections within formations as indi­ cated on electric logs. The throw of the faults generally is small, and at no place is the estimated throw sufficient to restrict completely the free movement of ground water. The faults are neither numerous enough nor large enough to cause major hydrological problems.

Trowbridge (1923, p. 104) describes two normal faults of small displacement, one about half a mile east of the old Jones ranch about 10 miles northwest of Crystal City and another on Chaparrosa Creek, 11 miles west of La Pryor. These faults were not observed in the field during this investigation and are not shown on plate 1.

28 GEOLOGY AND GROUND WATER, WINTER GARDEN, TEXAS

The contact of the Carrizo sand and the Bigford member of the Mount Selman formation in the Nueces River valley, 5 miles northeast of La Pry or, is marked by a northwest-trending fault of undetermined but probably small throw (pi. 1). A fault trending northeast was inferred from the reentrant in the Indio-Carrizo con­ tact just east of the Nueces River, 7 miles north of La Pryor (pi. 1). Another fault trending northeast is well exposed in Bee Bluff on the east bank of the Nueces River, 3 miles southeast of the railroad bridge which crosses the Nueces River near the Zavala-Uvalde County line (pi. 1). In southwestern Dimmit County another fault may be seen on a small hill near Olmos Creek about 3 miles west of the Hamilton ranch house (pi. 1). Clay of the Indio formation crops out on the top of the hill, whereas the Carrizo sand crops out about halfway down the hill on the north side. The fault dips slightly toward the south and, therefore, is probably a small reverse fault.

BOCK FORMATIONS AND THEIR WATER-BEARING PROPERTIES

CRETACEOUS SYSTEM

The San Miguel, Olmos, and Escondido formations, all of Late Cretaceous age, crop out in a small section in the northwestern part of Zavala County and in the eastern part of Maverick County. These formations are described briefly on page 25-26; no further description is given here because none of the formations are known to yield water to wells in the Winter Garden district. None of the formations of Cretaceous age that underlie the San Miguel forma­ tion are known to yield water to wells in the Winter Garden district. It is reported that no water was obtained from the Edwards limestone of Early Cretaceous age in a test well (H8-75), 7^ miles north of La Pryor drilled to a depth of 3,065 feet.

PALEOCENE SERIES

MIDWAY GROUP

The Kincaid formation named by Julia Gardner (1933) is the only formation of the Midway group in the Winter Garden district, the younger Wills Point formation of east Texas was absent. The Kincaid lies unconformably on and overlaps the rocks of Late Cre­ taceous age in the Winter Garden district. The type exposure of the Kincaid is along the Frio River on the old Kincaid ranch where about 100 feet of the section is exposed. Drillers' logs and electric logs, however, indicate an average thickness of about 200 feet in

GEOLOGY 29

northern Zavala County and an average thickness of about 300 feet in Dimmit County.

The Kincaid formation consists of dark fossiliferous marine shale, sandy shale, sandstone, and sandy limestone. According to Say re (1936, p. 59), the formation generally has a greenish cast owing to the presence of glauconite. Sayre also reports the presence of shark teeth, phospate nodules, and small rounded pieces of the underlying Escondido formation at the base of the Kincaid. The Kincaid is composed predominantly of impermeable rocks, and the cross sections on plates 2 and 3 show little change in lithology within the formation in the district.

The Kincaid formation crops out in northwestern Zavala County and in eastern Maverick County, but the full thickness is not exposed in the district because part of the formation is covered by the over­ lapping beds of the Indio formation. The Kincaid does not yield water to wells in the Winter Garden district.

EOCENE SERIES

WILCOX GROUP

INDIO FORMATION

The strata overlying the Kincaid formation and underlying the Carrizo sand were named the Indio formation by Trowbridge (1923, p. 90). The type locality of the Indio formation is on the old Indio ranch in Maverick and Dimmit Counties.

The Indio formation lies unconformably on and overlaps the Kin­ caid formation. The Indio crops out in a belt that extends northward from the Rio Grande through western Dimmit and Zavala Counties and eastern Maverick County and thence swings eastward to parallel the northern boundary of Zavala County (pi. 4). Although the out­ crop is about 8-10 miles wide near the Rio Grande southwest of Carrizo Springs, it narrows to about 2-4 miles along most of the western and northern boundaries of Zavala County where the Indio is partly overlapped by the Carrizo sand.

The beds of sandstone near the base of the Indio are relatively resistant to erosion and form escarpments facing updip that persist for many miles. One of the escarpments, caused by the outcrop of a lime-cemented sandstone, crosses the Carrizo Springs-Eagle Pass highway near the Dimmit-Maverick County line. The upland formed by beds of the lower Indio grades into low featureless areas which have been developed on the less resistant clay and soft sandstone dominant in the middle and upper parts of the Indio. The upland formed by the lower part of the Indio usually is covered with grass and has little brush except along streams, whereas the lowland areas

30 GEOLOGY AND GROUND WATER, WINTER GARDEN, TEXAS

generally have a heavy covering of vegetation consisting of mesquite (Prosopis juliflora), guajillo (Acacia berlandier) , black brush (Acacia amentacea), catclaw (Acacia greggii), and various types of cactuses and grasses.

The Indio is composed predominantly of thin-bedded and lami­ nated argillaceous sand and arenaceous shale, but it includes some thick layers of clay, lenses and persistent layers of sandstone, discon­ tinuous beds of lignite, and numerous calcareous, arenaceous, and ferruginous concretions. The laminated shale and shaly sand con­ tain a fine yellow powder along the bedding planes. The powder has been identified as copiapite, ferric-sulfate mineral (Julia A. Gardner, oral communication, Nov. 1929). The clay and shale are greenish, bluish gray, or light chocolate brown and generally are gypsiferous. The sandstones are gray, yellow, brown, or red, gen­ erally medium to fine grained, and not notably crossbedded. Most of the calcareous and arenaceous concretions are flat or biscuit shaped. The ferruginous concretions are thin and are particularly abundant near the upper and lower contacts. In several localities the surface near the Carrizo-Indio contact is nearly covered with con­ cretions.

The physical properties of samples of sand obtained from the Indio formation are shown in table 6. Results of laboratory analyses made on four samples of well cuttings (N6-2, R3-6, and S2-18) show that the largest percentage of sand grains is in the 0.25-0.125 milli­ meter range, and the next largest percentage is in the 0.125-0.062 millimeter range. These 2 groups comprise an average of about 75 percent of the 4 samples. The analysis of a core sample from the outcrop area of the Indio formation (table 6) shows that the sample is similar to the samples obtained from the wells. The sands of the Indio formation are similar to the fine-grained sand of the Car­ rizo sand and of the Bigford member of the Mount Selman forma­ tion. In general, however, the Indio has a greater percentage of fine-grained sand than the Carrizo.

Part of the Indio formation is of nonmarine origin but part of it is marine, as indicated by the presence of oyster shells and Forami- nifera. (See Gardner, 1924, p. 141-145, and Trowbridge, 1923, p. 90- 91.) Lignite is common throughout the formation, suggesting la- goonal conditions of deposition.

The upper part of the Indio in northern Zavala County contains thick lenses of water-bearing sand which are fairly extensive but do not appear to be continuous for long distances (pis. 2 and 3). The sand beds are neither as thick nor as permeable as the sand beds in the overlying Carrizo sand. Few wells are reported to have pene­ trated water-bearing sands in the middle part of the Indio.

36 GEOLOGY AND GROUND WATER, WINTER GARDEN, TEXAS

thick water-bearing sandstones have been reported near the base, but they are believed to be lenticular in shape. Wells developed in water-bearing sands in the Indio formation are given in table 7, which gives also the depth to the top of the sand below land surface, the thickness of the water-bearing sand, and the reported quality of the contained water.

In the western part of the district where the sands crop out, small supplies of water can be obtained from the Indio. Electric logs indicate that downdip in southern Dimmit County the water in the sands in the Indio becomes highly mineralized.

CLAIBORNE GROUP

The Claiborne group in the Winter Garden district includes the Carrizo sand, the Mount Selman formation, and the Cook Mountain formation. The Yegua formation, the uppermost formation of the Claiborne group, crops out in Frio and La Salle Counties but is not present in the Winter Garden district.

GEOLOGY 37

CABBIZO SAND

The name Carrizo, from the town of Carrizo Springs, was applied by Owen (1889, p. 70) to the thick, massive sand layers that lie disconformably on the clays of the Indio formation. There is no type locality for the Carrizo sand, but Plummer (in Sellards, Adkins, and Plummer, 1932, p. 614) has suggested that the type locality be designated at Brand Rock on the east bank of Pena Creek, about 5 miles west of Carrizo Springs.

The disconformable relationship between the Carrizo sand and the Indio formation is clearly shown by several exposures, and in some places conglomerate is found at the base of the Carrizo. The Carrizo may be seen lying on the eroded surface of the Indio forma­ tion at Bee Bluff on the east side of the Nueces River about 3 miles south of the Uvalde County line. The basal conglomerate is well ex­ posed on the west side of the river a short distance downstream from Bee Bluff. The contact is irregular for about a mile along Comanche Creek near the western boundary of Zavala County and can be seen at several places in the banks of the stream.

The Carrizo crops out in a belt extending in the western part of Dimmit County from the Rio Grande almost to the Zavala County line, where the outcrop swings in a wide arc through eastern Mav­ erick County and thence eastward along the northern boundary of Zavala County. Near the Rio Grande the belt of outcrop is about 2-3 miles wide. In the vicinity of the Carrizo Springs anticline, west and southwest of Carrizo Springs, the outcrop has a maximum width of about 6 miles, and in the remainder of the area the width ranges from less than a mile to about 3 miles. (See pis. 1 and 4.)

In general, the \ relief is greater in the area of outcrop of the Carrizo sand than in the adjacent areas underlain by less resistant clay and shale of the Indio and Mount Selman formations. The topography is not rugged although in some places quartzitic masses form rather prominent hills. The poorly cemented sand that com­ poses most of the Carrizo weathers rapidly, and the resulting surface is gently rolling. Sand dunes are numerous, and the unimproved roads crossing them are often impassable by automobile. The drain­ age in the dune areas is poorly developed.

Most of the creeks that cross the area of outcrop of the Carrizo head on the outcrops of the Indio formation or of the Cretaceous formations. Small closed drainage basins, some of them covering more than 50 acres, are found on the outcrop of the Carrizo. Storm waters form ponds in these depressions during exceptionally heavy rains. Most of the ponds disappear in 2 or 3 days, but the beds of some of them have become covered with silt, and these hold water for weeks or even months.

38 GEOLOGY AND GROUND WATER, WINTER GARDEN, TEXAS

The vegetation on the Carrizo outcrop generally is sparse. Al­ though mesquite trees are common, they generally are widely spaced, giving the outcrop an open appearance. The area of outcrop sup­ ports a fairly vigorous growth of grass, and in the spring it is carpeted more abundantly with brightly colored flowers than are the outcrops of other formations in the district.

The Carrizo sand consists of beds of massive commonly cross- bedded loosely cemented remarkably clean sand and some minor amounts of sandstone and clay. The sand is composed chiefly of grains of quartz ranging from a fraction of a millimeter to more than 5 millimeters in diameter. In general, the sand grains are coarse near the base of the formation and somewhat finer near the top. In many places the upper part contains fine-grained stratified sand and a few lenses of gray, brown, and brownish-red clay and sandy shale. In general, the sand is loosely cemented and weathers readily to incoherent sand, but in some places on the outcrop certain layers or masses of the rock are firmly cemented with silica, com­ monly iron-stained, and have the appearance and character of pink quartzite. In a few places, such as along Picoso Creek in Maverick County, the upper part of the Carrizo is cemented with calcium carbonate; but on the whole, calcareous material is rare. Ferruginous concretions are abundant in the formation in some localities. The Carrizo is a continental deposit. Poorly preserved fossil leaves have been found in some of the thin-bedded sands and clays, but neither invertebrate nor vertebrate fossils have been found in the Carrizo in this district. Lignite has been reported by drillers in several wells in the Carrizo, but it is probably rare. Copiapite, of common occur­ rence in the Indio formation, is relatively rare in the Carrizo. It is found in the form of a yellow powder along the bedding planes of some of the thin-bedded sand and sandy shale.

The purity of the quartz sand constitutes one of the chief criteria for differentiating sand beds of the Carrizo from the sand beds of other formations. The sands of the underlying Indio formation and of the overlying Bigford member of the Mount Selman formation commonly are lime cemented, contain considerable mica, and have appreciable amounts of such heavy minerals as magnetite, tourma­ line, and garnet. In Webb County, Lonsdale and Day (1937, p. 17) found 2-3 percent of clay, carbonates, and heavy minerals in the Carrizo; and a petrographic examination by M. N. Short of the U. S. Geological Survey of 5 samples of the Carrizo from the Winter Garden district (nos. 6, 9, 13, 14, and 16 in table 6) showed that quartz constitutes at least 95 percent of the volume of each sample. The remainder consists of muscovite mica and partly kaolinized feldspar. No heavy minerals are present. Short examined in more

GEOLOGY 39

detail a sample from Brand Rock, the proposed type locality of the Carrizo, on the east bank of Pefia Creek about 5 miles west of Carrizo Springs. No fraction of this sample, which had previously been crushed, sank in a bromoform solution having a specific gravity of 2.83. The proportion of heavy minerals in the sand, therefore, must be very low, if not zero.

The coarse-grained sand in the Carrizo is much coarser than the sand in other formations in the district. The fine-grained sand is similar in mechanical composition to fine-grained sand in the Indio formation and in the Bigford member of the Mount Selman forma­ tion. The results of mechanical analyses of 89 samples from well cuttings and outcrops of the Carrizo sand in different parts of the district are given in table 6. A comparison of these analyses with similar analyses showing the mechanical composition of sand from the Indio formation and the Bigford member leads to the conclusion that it is impossible to differentiate by means of mechanical analyses between the fine-grained sand of the Carrizo and those of the Indio and Bigford.

An excellent exposure of the lower part of the Carrizo sand is at Brand Rock, on Pefia Creek west of Carrizo Springs. Brand Rock is an expanse of rock of about 2 acres which has been swept clean of loose sand and dirt by wind and water. The sand, which is very coarse and generally well sorted, contains some grains of quartz as large as 5 millimeters in diameter. The sand grains are rounded to subangular and are polished. The whole deposit is strongly cross- bedded. (See fig. 6.) Section is given below:Carrizo sand: Feet

An exposure of coarse crossbedded sand in the upper part of the Carrizo may be seen on Chaparrosa Creek, three-quarters of a mile north of the crossing of the Eagle Pass-La Pryor road and about 9 miles west of La Pryor. (See fig. 7 and sample 6, table 6.)

A few sandstone beds are found in the Carrizo sand. Fine-grained thin-bedded somewhat lenticular sandstones are well exposed in Bell quarry, 2 miles southwest of Carrizo Springs (fig. 8), and a massive fine-grained sandstone, apparently 40-50 feet thick, crops out on Carrizo Creek just east of the Carrizo Springs-Dentonio road.

Beds of clay are not common in the area of outcrop of the Carrizo sand. Clay and sandy shale may form a larger part of the Carrizo than is apparent, however, because such beds may be covered by sand

which is readily spread by wind and rain over the adjacent areas of outcrop. Well logs in the Winter Garden district show beds of clay in the Carrizo near the outcrop. Lenses of clay appear to increase in number and thickness as the formation thickens to the southeast (pi. 3). A study of the logs of 175 widely spaced wells penetrating the Carrizo showed that no clay bed was noted in 65 wells, 1-2 clay beds were found in 99 wells, 3 clay beds were found in 7 wells, and more than 3 clay beds were found in 4 wells. The clay beds range in thickness from 1 to 80 feet and average about 20 feet.

In places certain beds in the Carrizo sand have been indurated to quartzite by secondary cementation of sand grains by silica. The quartzite generally ranges from pink to deep red. Some of the quartzitic masses, such as the one on Mustang Creek at the Uvalde- La Pryor road crossing appear to have been formed along fairly definite lines that can be followed as far as a mile. Hypothetical faults have been mapped by some geologists along the outcrops of the quartzite. Theoretically, deep-seated solutions rich in silica have moved upward along fault planes and the silica was deposited in the sand. Other quartzitic masses are localized, such as those forming Chimney Rock, on the Red ranch 12 miles southwest of Carrizo Springs, and Castle Rock, on the Chupadero ranch 25 miles southwest of Carrizo Springs. A quartzitic mass about 25 feet wide on the

Williams ranch, 6 miles northwest of La Pryor, is shown in figure 9. The outcrop consists of a dome-shaped mass of crossbedded and coarse-grained sandstone that breaks across the grains. Thin hard- rock layers of "shell" are often reported in wells drilled through the Carrizo sand near the quartzite outcrops. This suggests that the secondary silica may extend for some distance downdip. The "black basalt rock" indicated in the log of well M3-6 and the "shell" in the log of well M3-20 may be quartzite. (See table 10.)

Two types of iron concretions are abundant in the Carrizo sand in a few localities. One type, which may be irregularly shaped, round, or spheroidal, consists of sand grains cemented by iron carbonate (siderite). These concretions range from a quarter of an inch to 3 inches in diameter and some are aggregated into irregular masses. Near the base of the Carrizo sand on the east side of the Nueces River, 6 miles north of La Pryor, the valley slopes are nearly cov­ ered with spherical concretions. When these concretions are broken, loose sand pours out from the center. Concretions found in several localities in eastern Maverick County generally are less than 1 inch in diameter and are irregular in shape.

GEOLOGY 43

The second type of concretion is in stalagmitic form, generally irregular, but occasionally spherical and appears to be relatively pure limonite. These concretions resemble castles having columns up to 1 inch in diameter and 3-4 inches in height, and are most abundant at the contact with the Indio formation. In most places, however, iron concretions cannot be found at the contacts or else­ where in the Carrizo sand.

Some of the beds in the Carrizo sand are highly ferruginous, and they weather to a brick red. Other beds that contain only small quantities of iron are gray or white. Hard layers 1-2 feet thick containing pyrite are found in some wells at the top of the first water-bearing sand, just below the contact between strata of clay and sand within the Carrizo. At well N8-10 layers of sand cemented partly by lime and partly by pyrite were penetrated with difficulty by the drill.

The average thickness of the Carrizo sand in the Winter Garden district, as determined from the logs of 153 widely spaced wells, is about 200 feet, and a thickness of more than 300 feet was logged in 8 of the wells. The logs show that the formation increases in thickness from northwest to southeast. The average thickness is 130 feet in the northern part of the district, 200 feet near Crystal City and Carrizo Springs, 225 feet near Asherton, and 250 feet near Catarina.

The dip of the Carrizo differs from place to place in the district but averages about 60 feet to the mile. The direction of dip generally is southeast, but owing to structural irregularities, it differs from north-northeast to south.

Close to the outcrop the beds of sand in the Carrizo are massive and comparatively well defined, but downdip the individual sand beds commonly are thinner and are separated by shale beds. Shale beds, however, are indicated in all the electric logs on the cross sections in plates 2 and 3.

The Carrizo sand is the principal water-bearing formation of the Winter Garden district, furnishing about 90 percent of the water used for irrigation and nearly all the water used for domestic pur­ poses during 1947-48. The occurrence of water in the Carrizo sand, including the percolation of the water into the formation and its movement and discharge, the artesian head, the ability of the sand to transmit water, and the chemical character of the water, are dis­ cussed in greater detail in later sections of this report.

MOUNT SELMAN FORMATION

The name Mount Selman, from the town of Mount Selman in Cherokee County, Tex., was applied by Kennedy (1892, p. 52-54)

508883 O 60 4

44 GEOLOGY AND GROUND WATER, WINTER GARDEN, TEXAS

in 1892 to the lower part of the "marine beds" that lie on the Lignitic group of Kennedy (Carrizo-Wilcox) and under the Yegua formation. The name Cook Mountain was applied to the upper part of the marine beds.

In the Winter Garden district the Mount Selman formation lies with apparent conformity on the Carrizo sand. The lower part of the Mount Selman was named and defined by Trowbridge (1923, p. 92) as the Bigford formation. After a detailed study in Webb County by Lonsdale and Day (1937), the lower part of the Mount Selman was classified as the Bigford member of the Mount Selman formation and the upper part of the Mount Selman was called post- Bigford beds. The same terminology is used in this report.

Bigford member

In the Winter Garden district the contact between the Carrizo sand and the Bigford member generally has been drawn between the clean massively to thinly bedded sand at the top of the Carrizo and the clayey to sandy shale at the bottom of the Bigford. Ex­ posures of this contact are visible on Carrizo Creek beneath the bridge on the Asherton road half a mile south of Carrizo Springs; on Comanche Creek, 131/2 miles west of Crystal City; on Elm Creek, 1 mile northeast of the Burke ranch; and on the Nueces River, 2^ miles below the old Uvalde-La Pry or crossing.

At some places the contact between the Carrizo and the Bigford is not well defined, especially where the top of the Carrizo is in contact with a sand of the Bigford member. Apparently the sand from the Carrizo has been reworked to form the basal sand beds or lenses of the Bigford (fig. 10). Such sands easily could be mistaken for the Carrizo sand and be so recorded in drillers' logs. The water from these sands could be fresh, whereas most water from the Big- ford is highly mineralized.

The Bigford member crops out in a belt trending northward through Dimmit County and southern Zavala County, thence east­ ward through northern Zavala County into Frio County (pi. 4). Southeast of Carrizo Springs and northwest of Crystal City, where the dip is comparatively low, the outcrop of the Bigford is about 12 miles wide, whereas at the Zavala-Frio County line the outcrop is only about 2 miles wide.

Resistant sandstone beds in the lower part of the Bigford member form distinct scarps, some of which extend for several miles. Where clay beds are interbedded with resistant sandstone beds, the scarps are rugged. The Mills bed of Cetzendaner (1930, p. 1436) stands out as a north-facing scarp across northern Zavala County and as a west-facing scarp through western Zavala and Dimmit Counties.

GEOLOGY 45

FIGURE 10. Sandstone in the Bigford member of the Mount Selman formation. Sandstone contains reworked sand from the Carrizo, exposed in a tributary of El Barroso Creek, 4 miles south of Carrizo Springs, Tex.

The scarp, especially prominent near Dentonio, is also seen about halfway between Carrizo Springs and Crystal City.

The vegetation on the outcrop area of the Bigford is very much the same as that on the Indio formation. Mesquite grows thickly, guajillo, catclaw, and cactus are generally thick, but small shrubs and grass also thrive.

In the Winter Garden district the Bigford member consists chiefly of clay, which is generally calcareous and of many colors. It con­ tains subordinate amounts of gray or brown sandy clay and sand­ stone; many beds of lignite, some as much as 3 feet thick; a few "paper" shales and sands, such as are present in the Indio formation; and a few thick coarse-grained crossbedded quartzitic sand beds, similar to those in the Carrizo sand. The Bigford also contains many beds, lenses, and concretions of yellow limestone and some thin beds of hematite. Many beds contain gypsum that weathers out in thin plates or as very small twinned crystals of selenite. Cone-in-cone structure is fairly common in the clayey beds in which calcareous and argillaceous materials are about equally mixed.

46 GEOLOGY AND GROUND WATER, WINTER GARDEN, TEXAS

The sandstone for the most part is fine grained, containing much mica, many grains of heavy minerals, and a small amount of glau- conite. The sand grains are clean and well rounded and range from pink to maroon. Most beds are thin to massive, but several layers of fine-grained lime-cemented crossbedded sand have been observed. Some of the layers, however, are poorly cemented. The sandstone beds are relatively much thicker and coarser grained near the base of the member.

A very hard lime-cemented gray sandstone, 6 inches-2 feet thick, is an excellent marker about 25-50 feet above the Carrizo-Bigford contact. This bed extends for more than 50 miles in western Dimmit County and Zavala County. In many places a layer of irregularly banded ironstone of varying thickness was found directly under­ neath the sandstone. The following description is of an outcrop on the Carrizo Springs-Eagle Pass highway, about 81/a miles northwest of Carrizo Springs, where beds of very hard sandstone are exposed on each side of the road.

The mechanical analyses of five samples from the Bigford member (table 6) indicate marked variations in the distribution of grain sizes in the different well cuttings. Most of the grains, however, are 0.25 millimeter in diameter or smaller. The distribution of grain size of the fine-grained sand in the Bigford member is similar to that of the fine-grained sand in the Carrizo sand and Indio formation.

The lime concretions in the Bigford are predominantly lens shaped and are a distinctive mustard yellow. The smaller concretions are commonly formed about a leaf or twig. Large lenticular concretions containing cavities and veins filled with deep-yellow calcite crystals are found near the top of the member. Siderite is present in some of the concretions, and in a few localities limonite or marcasite is found as more or less spherical concretions 1-2 inches in diameter in hard lime-cemented sandstone. Small irregularly shaped iron con­ cretions were found at a few contacts of the sandstone and clay.

Layers of ironstone occur in the Bigford, but they are thin and the parallel banding resembles the grain in wood. On the surface the exposures resemble brick pavements because of a tendency to crack into uniform-sized blocks. The ironstone contains much hema­ tite associated with limonite, siderite, and clay.

GEOLOGY 47

Fossil leaves and leaf imprints are fairly well preserved in some of the thin-bedded argillaceous sand and carbonaceous shale beds in the Bigford member. Trowbridge (1932, p. 66) described a small collection of molluscan fossils and fish scales taken from the Bigford near Dentonio. Getzendaner (1930, p. 1436) states that several mussel shells belonging to the fresh-water genus Unio have been found in the Bigford. Unidentifiable fragments of fossils have been taken from the Bigford at several localities. Although no guide fossils have been described from the member, Lonsdale and Day (1937, p. 19-21) reported 8 fossil zones in the Bigford in Webb County, 2 of them traceable across the county.

The electric logs (pis. 2 and 3) indicate that shale and sandy shale predominate in the Bigford member in Zavala County, but to the south in Dimmit County the member becomes predominantly sandy. Throughout nearly all the Winter Garden district, the Big- ford contains highly mineralized water. The upper part of the Bigford in the district closely resembles the post-Bigford beds of the Mount Selman formation, and, it is therefore almost impossible to determine the thickness of the Bigford from well logs. It is estimated that the Bigford has a minimum thickness of about 400 feet near the outcrop and a maximum thickness of about 800 feet downdip in eastern Dimmit County.

The sand and sandstone beds in the Bigford member are relatively thin, rarely exceeding 30 feet. In the northern part of the district near La Pryor and Batesville, a few shallow stock and domestic wells draw their supply from the Bigford. Several of the wells were formerly pumped for irrigation and yielded as much as 100 gallons a minute without excessive drawdown. The town of La Pryor was formerly supplied from a well in the Bigford, but the well has been deepened and now draws from the Carrizo sand. South of La Pryor wells penetrate sands in the Bigford that generally are of low permeability and yield small quantities of highly mineralized water only. In general, the sands of the Bigford are thin, probably lenticu­ lar, and do not yield large amounts of water.

Nearly all the water in the Bigford is under artesian pressure; however, no flowing wells have been reported. The outcrops of the water-bearing sands are narrow in most places, and the amount of recharge to them is probably small. The sands may lens out or decrease in permeability, and many of them probably have no surface outcrop.

Post-Bigford beds

The post-Bigford beds of the Mount Selman formation crop out in a broad belt in the central and eastern parts of Dimmit and Zavala

48 GEOLOGY AND GROUND WATER, WINTER GARDEN, TEXAS

Counties (pi. 4). The width of the outcrop belt diminishes northward from 23 miles at the Dimmit-Webb County line to 16 miles near the Dimmit-Zavala County line, and about 12 miles at the Zavala-Frio County line.

The following lithologic description of the post-Bigford beds is chiefly from the observations of Trowbridge (1932). The post- Bigford beds are lithologically similar to the beds of the Bigford member but are composed chiefly of clay, a few relatively thin ledges of sandstone and gray limestone, and beds of coal, either lignitic or bituminous. The clay is gray, black, greenish gray, and bluish gray where fresh and yellow or tuff where weathered. Some of the beds are sandy, others are limy, but most of them consist chiefly of stiff, compact clay, plastic and sticky when wet, hard and brittle when dry. The beds of clay contain large quantities of gypsum as lenses, stringers, joint fillings, and irregular aggregates of crystals.

The thin ledges of sandstone and limestone serve to protect the underlying clay from erosion and provide some relief in a topography that is otherwise monotonously flat. The exposed sections probably exaggerate the proportion of sandstone because outcrops occur only where lenses of the more resistant materials are abundant. Some of the sandstone lenses, most common near the base of the post-Bigford beds, are 25-30 feet thick. They contain fine to coarse quartz grains of sand and small amounts of mica and glauconite; they are fairly well indurated but are not quartzitic.

Many calcareous concretions are distributed throughout the post- Bigford beds, but they are found chiefly in clay and shale. Most of the concretions are composed of compact fine-grained pure almost lithographic limestone. The exterior of the concretions is pale yel­ lowish gray or buff; on the inside they are light chocolate brown or gray, and the septarian fractures are filled with calcite. They range in diameter from about a quarter of an inch to about 6 feet; some are cylindrical; some are biscuit shaped; some are irregularly nodu­ lar; and some are spheroidal.

The maximum thickness of the post-Bigford beds in the district is estimated to be 700 feet. Though the Claiborne group is typically fossiliferous, the fossils are poorly preserved and scarce in the post-Bigford beds in the Winter Garden district.

In the Winter Garden district the sandstone lenses in the lower part of the post-Bigford beds yield small supplies of highly min­ eralized water. Farther east in Frio County, however, the post- Bigford beds yield adequate supplies of good water to many farm and ranch wells (Lonsdale, 1935, p. 34-35).

COOK MOUNTAIN FORMATION

The name Cook Mountain, from Cook Mountain, Houston County, Tex., was applied by Kennedy (1892, p. 52-54) to the upper part of the marine beds that underlie the Yegua formation. The Cook Mountain formation crops out in southeastern and northeastern Dimmit County and southeastern Zavala County (pi. 4). The geologic map of Texas from which plate 4 was adapted shows the Cook Mountain formation and Sparta sand undifferentiated. The Sparta sand, however, is not believed to be present in the Winter Garden district and is not shown on plate 4 as being included with the Cook Mountain formation. The outcrop area of the Cook Mountain com­ monly has greater relief than outcrops of the other Eocene formations in the district. It is characteristically a series of rather high rolling red hills of resistant sandstone and fossiliferous limestone. Vegetation generally is dense, consisting of guajillo, mesquite, low shrubs, and grass.

The following description of the Cook Mountain is in part from observations by Trowbridge (1932, p. 104-107) and Miss Julia A. Gardner (written communication). The Cook Mountain consists chiefly of sand and sandstone. The sand, most of which is medium grained, is more or less firmly cemented. The beds of sandstone range from fine to coarse grained and are green, brown, red, yellow, and gray and are commonly glauconitic, ferruginous, and micaceous. Many of them are crossbedded and ripple marked. Mechanical analy­ ses of 2 samples from the Cook Mountain show that more than 95 percent of the grains are 0.25 millimeter in diameter or smaller. (See table 6.) Iiiterbedded with the sandstone are some white, yel­ lowish, bluish, and greenish-gray or chocolate-colored clay beds and a few thin lenses of gray limestone. The sandstone, and at some places the clay, contains large dark-gray firmly cemented crystalline limestone concretions, some of which are fossiliferous. The lower two-thirds of the formation weathers characteristically into red sandy soil; the upper third at most places weathers gray. Marine fossils are abundant in the clay and in the calcareous sandstone. The full thickness of the Cook Mountain is not exposed in the Winter Garden district but is estimated to be about 700 feet.

The lower part of the Cook Mountain formation contains many permeable beds of sandstone in the district, but tests have not been made to determine the quantity of water that might be developed from them. Well N6-1, which is in the outcrop of the Cook Mountain near Loma Vista, was the only well observed that taps the Cook Mountain. The water from well N6-1 has a relatively low mineral content. (See table 12.) However, it is reported by the ranchers in

50 GEOLOGY AND GROUND WATER, WINTER GARDEN, TEXAS

the outcrop area that cattle would not drink water from the Cook Mountain formation and that all ranch wells were drilled to deeper formations.

In Frio County, east of the Winter Garden district, the Cook Mountain formation in places yields sufficient water for irrigation. The water varies in quality, but the lower sandy parts of the forma­ tion yield the best water (Lonsdale, 1935, p. 40-41).

PLIOCENE (?) SERIES

UVALDE GRAVEL

The Uvalde gravel includes the gravel and silt that were first named the "Uvalde formation" by R. T. Hill (1891, p. 368) from its occurrence in the vicinity of the town of Uvalde. Trowbridge (1923, p. 98-100) correlated these deposits with the Eeynosa forma­ tion of south Texas, but it has been shown since that the Uvalde gravel is younger than the Reynosa formation and the name Uvalde gravel is now accepted by the U. S. Geological Survey.

The Uvalde gravel, which consists primarily of pebbles and cob­ bles of chert, quartz, and igneous rock and of black silt, caps the divides between the streams. It is generally only 1-2 feet thick, but in a few places is as much as 20 feet thick. It is commonly cemented with caliche. In the northern part of the district the maximum size of the cobbles is about 6 inches; in the southern part, about 3 inches. In the area drained by the Nueces River and its tributaries, most of the Uvalde consists of chert derived from the Edwards limestone of the Edwards Plateau, but on the divide between the Nueces River and the Rio Grande, broad plains of black silt are underlain by gravel deposits consisting chiefly of pebbles of igneous rocks.

A typical deposit of the Uvalde gravel can be seen in a roadcut on the Carrizo Springs-Billy highway about 1.8 miles east of the Nueces River bridge. The deposit is about 2 feet thick and contains pebbles and cobbles from 1 to 6 inches in diameter. A good exposure of the gravel, cemented by caliche, is on the west side of the Carrizo Springs-Crystal City highway in a gravel pit on top of the highest hill, about 6 miles north of Carrizo Springs and a little south of Winter Haven. The Uvalde gravel does not contain appreciable quantities of water because of its topographic position and lack of reservoir capacity.

PLEISTOCENE SERIES

LEONA FORMATION

The Leona formation was named by Hill and Vaughan (1898, p. 253-254) from the extensive deposits composing the first wide ter-

GEOLOGY 51

race in the valleys of the Nueces and Leona Kivers. These flood-plain deposits are of Pleistocene age and consist of light-gray and buff silt and lenticular beds of sand and gravel. The Leona formation lies in the valleys of the Leona, Nueces, and Frio Kivers and their tribu­ taries between the high-level deposits of the Uvalde gravel and the Recent flood-plain deposits. It is mapped with the Recent alluvium on plate 4, as Quaternary alluvium, undifferentiated.

The pebbles and cobbles of the Leona formation were derived chiefly from the Edwards limestone and are composed of limestone, chert, and minor amounts of igneous rock. The silt commonly con­ tains fossil shells of land snails. The grain size of the material in the Leona decreases rapidly to the south away from the source area. Thus, more gravel is found near Uvalde County and more silt occurs south of Batesville.

Trowbridge (1923, p. 101) lists several fresh-water air-breathing mollusks in the Leona formation. Large teeth from Pleistocene ele­ phants reportedly were found in the old spring valley at Carrizo Springs, which was a bog before the springs ceased flowing.

In the valleys of the main streams, the Leona formation ranges in thickness from 0 to 75 feet, and the base of the formation may be as much as 70 feet below the beds of the rivers. Along the tributary streams the Leona is generally only a few feet thick.

The Leona commonly contains several layers of permeable sand and gravel which yield water freely to wells in parts of the district where the formation is thick enough to be water bearing. In 1947-48 about 60 shallow wells supplied water for irrigation of approximately 5,000 acres near Batesville and 5 shallow wells were used to irrigate 900 acres southeast of La Pryor. The yield of these wells varies with the thickness and permeability of the sand and gravel, but yields of as much as 1,000 gallons per minute have been reported for some wells. In the area north of Batesville, practically all the domestic supplies are obtained from the Leona. In an area 5-8 miles north of La Pryor, gravel of the Leona rests on the Carrizo sand and wells draw both from the gravel and the sand. North of La Pryor where the Leona overlies the Carrizo sand, the water in the Leona probably contributes to the recharge of the Carrizo. Throughout much of its outcrop the Leona formation is separated from the Carrizo sand by at least part of the Mount Selman formation. Water can move from the Leona formation to recharge the Carrizo directly only in the out­ crop area of the Carrizo. Such recharge probably takes place within the Nueces River valley on the outcrop of the Carrizo north of La Pryor and within the Leona River valley north of Batesville. South of the outcrop of the Carrizo, however, the Leona formation and the Carrizo sand are not hydrologically connected.

52 GEOLOGY AND GROUND WATER, WINTER GARDEN, TEXAS

CALICHE

Caliche is rock composed largely of calcium carbonate deposited by evaporation at or near the surface of the ground. Water percolat­ ing through the soil dissolves soluble materials in the order of and in proportion to their solubility. In semiarid and arid regions the total evaporation exceeds the total precipitation, and water evaporated at or near the ground surface leaves a residue of the contained minerals. The mineral matter may be deposited by water that is moving from the ground surface toward the w^ater table or from the water table toward the ground surface.

In the Winter Garden district, caliche generally consists of a few inches of an upper layer or crust of hard banded gray to light-buff calcium carbonate which grades downward into a greater thickness of softer white porous to powdery calcium carbonate. In most parts of the district, the caliche is only a few feet thick; however, it is as much as 20 feet thick in many places along the outcrop of the lower part of the Bigford member of the Mount Selman formation from Carrizo Springs northwestward for a distance of about 12 miles.

Caliche has considerable economic value for use in road construc­ tion. Although not everywhere suitable for quarrying, it is common as a surficial deposit in all parts of the district except in the outcrop area of the Carrizo sand. The presence of caliche in exposed rocks of all ages and the fact that it is still being formed suggests that it is at least in part of Recent age, possibly extending back to Pleistocene time.

Caliche may restrict the downward percolation of water and thus reduce the quantity of recharge to the ground-water reservoir. Caliche also may hold some water in temporary storage, this water later evap­ orating. Caliche, however, generally can be regarded as having only a minor effect on the hydrology in the district.

RECENT SERIES

ALLUVIUM

Most of the stream valleys of the Winter Garden district contain some alluvial deposits of Recent age which consist primarily of ma­ terial reworked from the Leona formation; the two formations are shown as a single unit on plate 4. The Nueces River flood plain through central Zavala County and central and eastern Dimmit County has a thick mantle of fertile, porous silt which produces large crop yields when properly irrigated. Gravel deposits along the Nueces River yield small quantities of water to wells for domestic purposes. Other alluvial deposits occupy rather narrow areas within the stream- beds or on Recent flood plains and do not yield significant quantities

OCCURRENCE OF GROUND WATER 53

of water. The Recent river gravels serve to retard the runoff of storm water and where they overlie the outcrop of the Carrizo sand in the beds of the Nueces and Leona Rivers possibly aid to a small extent in the recharge of the Carrizo.

OCCURRENCE OF GROUND WATER

Most of the precipitation on the earth is derived from water evaporated from the sea. A part of the precipitation on the land surface runs off directly in surface streams; a part is returned to the atmosphere by evaporation; and a part penetrates the surface of the earth. There, a part of it is later evaporated or is transpired by plants, and a part descends to the zone of saturation. After entering the zone of saturation, the water, under the influence of gravity, moves slowly through the water-bearing beds until it is intercepted by wells or is discharged through natural outlets. Then a part returns directly to the air and a part flows to the sea and completes the hydrologic cycle. Ground water is the water that occurs below the surface of the earth in the zone of saturation, where all the interstitial openings in the rocks are filled with water under hydrostatic pressure.

The fundamental principles of the occurrence and movement of ground water have been presented in papers by Meinzer (1923a, 1923b, and 1932), Meinzer and Wenzel (1942), and Wenzel (1942), among others. The discussion that follows is a brief outline of those general principles and is limited to those phases that are essential to an understanding of the problems in the Winter Garden district.

Ground water in the Winter Garden district moves principally through sand and gravel in the Carrizo sand and Leona formation from points of recharge to points of discharge. The water in the Leona deposits and in the outcrop of the Carrizo is unconfined that is, the surface of the ground-water body (water table) occurs in permeable materials and is subject only to atmospheric pressure. Where the Leona overlies a permeable material, that material may be recharged from water in the Leona. DowTndip from the outcrop, where the Carrizo is overlain by the Mount Selman formation, ground water in the Carrizo sand is confined by the relatively impermeable overlying strata. Although the confining beds often are regarded as entirely impermeable under natural hydraulic gradients, it has been suggested that water may move very slowly even through clays. (See Winslow and Doyel, 1954, p. 16 and 17.) Even though the permea­ bility of the overlying beds may be very low, the relatively large area of contact may allow large quantities of water to escape from the aquifer. Water also may move directly from one formation to an­ other where the two are not separated by impermeable beds. Natural

discharge occurs from the confined water-bearing beds through springs or seeps as the water finds its way to the land surface. Water in the unconfined or water-table areas is discharged naturally by springs and seeps where a stream or other drainage feature cuts below the regional water table or by evapotranspiration where the water table is close to the land surface. Artificial discharge is by wells, or other artificial structures. The confined water is under sufficient hy­ drostatic pressure to rise in tightly cased wells above the level at which it is found. If the altitude to which water will rise is greater than the altitude of the land surface, flowing wells may be obtained. The confined water is called artesian water whether or not it flows

The Carrizo is separated from beds of sand in the Bigford member of the Mount Selman formation by a relatively impermeable clay. Where the seal of the clay is broken by an improperly constructed well, water from the Carrizo may move through the well and mix with water in the Bigford member, or vice versa, depending on the relation of the artesian head in the two units.

PRINCIPAL AQUIFERS

CARRIZO SAND

GROUND-WATER WITHDRAWALS

The Carrizo sand is the principal ground-water reservoir, or aquifier in the Winter Garden district. About 90 percent of the ground water used during the 1947-48 irrigation season was pumped from the Carrizo.

The quantity of water pumped from the Carrizo sand in the Water Garden area first assumed significant proportions during the 1920's. During the 1929-30 season about 27,000 acre-feet of water was pumped to irrigate about 27,000 acres. During the depression years all farm­ ing operations declined, but irrigation farming declined more, per­ centagewise. During the 1937-38 season only "about 22,000 acre-feet of water was pumped to irrigate about 24,000 acres. The rate of de­ velopment increased sharply at the beginning of World War II and has accelerated since the war.

The total withdrawal of water for irrigation purposes in the 1947-48 season from the Carrizo sand in the Winter Garden district was about 52,000 acre-feet, which was pumped to irrigate about 42,000 acres. The estimate of pumpage for irrigation was based on records of pumpage from 76 wells and the total acreage and type of crop under irrigation. The average amount of water used for irriga­ tion was computed to be about 1.6 acre-feet per acre for vegetables and citrus trees and about 0.8 acre-foot per acre for feed crops and cotton.

The public water supply for seven towns in the Winter Garden district in 1947-48 was obtained from wells in the Carrizo sand. Total pumpage at Asherton, Big Wells, Brundage, Carrizo Springs, Catarina, Crystal City, and La Pryor was estimated to be 1,400 acre-feet per year or 1.25 million gallons per day.

Pumpage for domestic and stock supply from the Carrizo sand in 1947-48 was estimated at 1,000 acre-feet per year or about 900,000 gallons per day. Pumpage for industrial purposes, not accounted for under public supply, was about 400 acre-feet per year or 360,000 gal­ lons per day.

FLUCTUATIONS OF WATER LEVELS AND ARTESIAN PRESSURES

Water levels and artesian pressures fluctuate in response to re­ charge from precipitation and discharge through natural and arti­ ficial outlets. A record of the fluctuations of water levels in 46 wells in the Carrizo sand has been maintained since the start of the in­ vestigation in 1929. (See table 11.) Of the observation wells, 8 are

PRINCIPAL AQUIFERS 57

water-table wells on the outcrop of the Carrizo sand, whereas the remaining 38 wells, which are downdip from the outcrop, are artesian wells.

WATER-TABLE WELLS

Water-level fluctuations in 4 water-table wells near Carrizo Springs, in 2 wells near Cometa, and in 1 well west of La Pryor all show a similar pattern of decline during the 19-year period from 1930 through 1948. The magnitude of the decline for the period varied, ranging from 3.1 to 20.7 feet. The records of water-level measurements in wells M6-19 and Si-18, shown in figures 13 and 14, respectively, are typical examples of the observed fluctuations in wells in the outcrop area. The water levels in both wells declined persistently throughout the period, and the decline has been slightly accelerated since 1941. During the 19-year period the annual rainfall at Carrizo Springs averaged 0.93 inch above average. It is concluded, therefore, that the decline in water levels in wells on the outcrop area has not been caused by a deficiency in recharge, but by withdrawals from wells in both the water-table and the artesian areas.

ARTESIAN WELLS

During the early development of irrigation in the Winter Garden district, flowing wells in the Carrizo sand were common. In 1904 Bowie (1905, p. 460-463) estimated the pressure head to be 18-40 feet above the land surface southeast of Carrizo Springs. In 1907, Taylor (1907, p. 51-52) presented records of 40 wells within 10 miles of Carrizo Springs; all but 2 of the wells flowed. He recorded 23 wells, 16-31 miles southwest of Batesville; 15 of these were reported to flow. Before the development of ground water for irrigation, several springs southwest of Carrizo Springs spilled water from the Carrizo sand into Carrizo Creek. As development continued, the head was lowered until the springs flowed only during the periods of least withdrawals. By 1929 the springs on Carrizo Creek ceased to flow.

The following discussion refers to the average fluctuations of water levels in observation wells near La Pryor, Crystal City, Cometa, Winter Haven, Carrizo Springs, Asherton, and Catarina. The de­ clines show the trends, but not necessarily the average magnitude for the areas because of the limited number of observation wells having continuous records. The magnitude of the decline for 2 periods is shown on figures 15 and 16.

In the La Pryor area the artesian pressure remained fairly con­ stant from 1930 to 1940. (See well Nl-40 in fig. 13 and wells Nl-24 and Nl-40 in table 11.) Since 1940 the artesian pressure has declined almost continuously. The decline in wells Nl-24 and Nl-40 from

1940 to 1948 averaged about 54 feet, The accelerated decline after 1940 was caused by increased pumping as the irrigated area increased from about 4,600 to about 7,600 acres.

In the Crystal City area the artesian pressure declined an average of about 20 feet from 1930 to 1936, recovered about 20 feet from 1936 to 1941, and declined about 106 feet from 1941 to 1948. The greatest decline occurred after 1946 (fig. 13, well N5-40). Between 1938 and 1948 the area irrigated was increased from about 8,400 to about 15,600 acres.

In the Cometa area the artesian pressure declined an average of about 7 feet from 1930 to 1936, showed no appreciable change from

In the Winter Haven area the artesian pressure rose an average of about 30 feet from 1930 to 1940 but declined an average of about 70 feet from 1941 to 1948. Between 1938 and 1948 the area irrigated was increased from 1,100 acres to about 2,000 acres. Nevertheless, the greatest decline, which occurred after 1946, appears to have been caused by pumping in adjacent areas, especially the Crystal City area, rather than in the Winter Haven area itself.

62 GEOLOGY AND GROUND WATER, WINTER GARDEN, TEXAS

In the Carrizo Springs area the artesian pressure fluctuated con­ siderably. There was no material decline in head from 1930 to 1941; however, there was a decline of about 68 feet from 1941 to 1948. The number of pumped wells increased from 50 to 59 from 1938 to 1948, and the irrigated area increased from 1,200 to about 3,100 acres.

In the Asherton area the artesian pressure rose an average of about 19 feet from 1930 to 1941; however, the pressure declined about 36 feet from 1941 to 1948. In 1938, 62 wells were in use as compared with 56 wells in use in 1948; however, during the same period the irrigated area increased from 2,900 to about 3,700 acres.

In the Catarina area the artesian pressure increased an average of about 14 feet from 1930 to 1937, declined slightly from 1938 to 1939, and recovered slightly in 1940 to 1941. A decline in pressure of about 27 feet took place from 1941 to 1948. Between 1938 when 24 wells were in use and 1948 when 38 wells were in use, the area irrigated was increased from about 1,300 to about 3,000 acres.

SEASONAL FLUCTUATIONS

Seasonal changes in water requirements for crops cause seasonal changes in the water levels and artesian pressures. In recent years the trend has been to produce 2 or 3 crops per year, in contrast to the practice during the 1930's when only 1 crop a year was produced on most farms. During the crop-year 1929-30 the irrigation season began in the middle of September and ceased in the latter part of April. The cessation of irrigation allowed water levels to recover, reaching maximum altitudes just prior to the next irrigation season. Seasonal fluctuations as great as 150 feet have been recorded. The present practice of irrigating 2 or 3 crops per year tends to decrease the amplitude of the fluctuations; however, the highest levels still generally occur during the late summer.

Annual water-level measurements are apt to give a false picture of water-level trends if the seasonal fluctuations are not considered. Therefore, water-level measurements should be made at the same time each year to make the data comparable.

NATURAL RECHARGE

The quantity of water recharged to an aquifer is the most sig­ nificant factor determining the quantity of water that may be con­ tinually withdrawn from the aquifer. The sources of recharge are infiltration from precipitation directly on the outcrop of the aquifer, seepage from surface streams which cross the outcrop of the aquifer, and interformational leakage.

The area of outcrop of the Carrizo sand in the Winter Garden dis­ trict that is available for recharge to the pumped areas is about 200,000 acres (White and Meinzer, 1931, p. 10). During a rain nearly all the

PRINCIPAL AQUIFERS 63

water penetrates the surface of the ground in the outcrop area, but most of the rainwater eventually is lost by evapotranspiration. Under favorable conditions a part of the precipitation reaches the zone of saturation, and this recharges the sand.

At Carrizo Springs, part of which is on the outcrop of the Carrizo sand, the average annual precipitation for a 27-year period of record is 21.79 inches. A little more than 3 inches of water, equivalent to 15 percent of the precipitation, over the 200,000 acres of outcrop avail­ able to receive recharge would be enough to provide the 53,000 acre- feet of water withdrawn (for all purposes) during the 1947-48 season. It is obvious that several times 3 inches of water is available from precipitation on the outcrop, but it is equally obvious that the recharge has been equivalent to only a part of 3 inches a year during the period 1930-48, for when the average annual withdrawals have exceeded 27,000 acre-feet, the water table in the outcrop area has declined.

Attempts were made to measure percolation on the outcrop of the Carrizo sand by using lysimeters. White and Meinzer (1931, p. 9) state "that during the period of unusually heavy precipitation in October and November 1930, most of the rain that fell on the outcrop disappeared underground and moved slowly downward to depths of 5 feet or more."

The lysimeter experiments, however, produced widely varying results, chiefly because of the lack of uniformity in the texture of the material through which the water moved before reaching the zone of saturation. The percolating water tended to follow animal burrows and root channels. Some of the lysimeters collected more water than could be accounted for by the measured precipitation, whereas others collected less water than was expected. On the whole, the experiments with the lysimeters were inconclusive.

Seepage measurements were made on several streams crossing the Carrizo outcrop to determine the extent of recharge from the streams to the aquifer. The Nueces River is the largest stream that crosses the outcrop within the Winter Garden district, although much of the time it carries little or no water. Peak discharges often reach several thousand acre-feet, but conditions at such times are unfavorable for determining the losses on the outcrop. Measurements made when the flow is between about 20 and 200 second-feet show that the loss of the river between points immediately above the outcrop and points several miles below the outcrop generally is between 15 and 40 second- feet. However, a considerable part of this seepage enters the extensive alluvial deposits in the river valley and is returned to the river farther downstream, chiefly in a stretch 8-10 miles below the Carrizo outcrop. This return flow continues long after the stream ceases to flow above the outcrop.

64 GEOLOGY AND GROUND WATER, WINTER GARDEN, TEXAS

Seepage measurements on Carrizo Creek showed a high rate of loss in a short stretch 2 or 3 miles above the crossing of Highway 83, but comparatively little loss in the rest of the course over the Carrizo outcrop. Pefia Creek loses heavily in only part of its course on the outcrop. Two sets of measurements made on Pendencia Creek in Dimmit County and on Comanche and Turkey Creeks in Zavala County showed no losses on the outcrop.

Carrizo Creek heads on the outcrop of clay of the Bigford member, and Pendencia, Comanche, and Turkey Creeks head on the outcrops of shale and clay of Late Cretaceous or Eocene age. Consequently, the storm waters which these streams carry are laden with clay and silt. These sediments have been deposited in the streambeds in many places on the Carrizo outcrop, thereby making a seal which prevents or retards penetration of storm water to the underground reservoir.

The possibility of interformational leakage has been discussed by Winslow and Doyel (1954, p. 15-17) in connection with the Houston area. The greater heads normally attained in the more permeable sands permit the movement of water into adjacent less permeable shale, silt, and clayey beds. A reduction in head caused by large with­ drawals may reverse the head differential and reverse the direction of movement. In the Winter Garden district the Carrizo is the most permeable formation, but large declines of artesian pressure may have caused the movement of water into the Carrizo from adjacent formations. The quantity of recharge from this source, however, is probably relatively small owing to the low permeability of the adjacent beds.

It is concluded that nearly all the recharge to the Carrizo sand in the Winter Garden district comes directly from precipitation on the outcrop area. Only a small part comes from streams that cross the outcrop, and the actual recharge in the vicinity of streams probably is only slightly more per unit of area than in the remainder of the outcrop.

In order to reach a tentative figure of the amount of replenishment from the outcrop of the Carrizo to the pumped districts in Zavala and Dimmit Counties for 1929-30, White and Meinzer (1931, p. 11) assumed that the inflow passed through a vertical section of the sand 60 miles long along the 550-foot contour line shown on figure 11. They estimated that along this contour the average thickness of the formation was 200 feet, the average coefficient of permeability 200, and the average hydraulic gradient 10 feet to the mile. On this basis the estimated flow from the outcrop to the pumped districts was estimated to be 24 million gallons a day, or about 27,000 acre-feet a year the same as the estimated withdrawal for the 1929-30 irrigation year.

PRINCIPAL AQUIFERS 65

During the 1937-38 irrigation year, the water levels in water-table wells remained essentially at the same altitude while about 22,000 acre-feet of water was pumped from the Carrizo for irrigation within the district. The average water level in 36 wells in both the water- table and the artesian areas rose about 1 foot. Thus, the recharge to the Carrizo during 1937-38 is estimated to have been about 22,000 acre-feet.

Estimates of the annual recharge thus range from 22,000 to 27,000 acre-feet per year. The data on which these estimates are based are meager, and additional work should be done to refine them; however, it is the opinion of the writer that a fair value for the average annual recharge is 25,000 acre-feet.

ARTIFICIAL, RECHARGE

The possibilities of appreciably increasing the recharge to the Winter Garden district appear unfavorable. If dams on the streams and small drainageways were constructed to spread the water over the outcrop area to allow more time for the percolation of water into the sand, undoubtedly the amount of water recharged to the sand would be increased for a time. Eventually, however, the recharge to the Carrizo might be reduced to even less than at present because the area covered by the stored water probably would become silted, and this would reduce the area available for infiltration of precipitation. The silt problem could be alleviated by conducting the water into recharge basins after allowing the heaviest silt load to pass downstream and by periodically rejuvenating the basins by scarifying them when they are dry. (See Moffitt, 1943, and Sayre and Stringfield, 1948, p. 8.) However, the installation of numerous reservoirs on the small drainageways would appreciably reduce the runoff to the prin­ cipal streams, which seldom supply an adequate amount to meet existing surface-water appropriations.

Artificial recharge by means of wells does not appear to be feasible in the Winter Garden district. The only water that could be used for artificial recharge is surface water which is already appropriated and is not even sufficient to irrigate all the arable lands along the streams. Moreover, such water might have to be filtered and treated chemically at a cost that might exceed the present value of water for irrigation.

HYDRAULIC PROPERTIES OF THE AQUIFER

GLOSSARY OF TECHNICAL TERMS

The following definitions are presented as a reference to basic quantitative terms used in the following sections of this report.

Porosity can be quantitatively expressed as the percentage of the total volume of a rock that is occupied by interstices.

66 GEOLOGY AND GROUND WATER, WINTER GARDEN, TEXAS

Permeability is the capacity of an aquifer to transmit water. The field coefficient of permeability (P) is defined (Wenzel, 1942, p. 7) as the number of gallons of water a day that percolates under prevailing conditions through each mile of water-bearing bed (measured at right angles to the direction of flow) for each foot of thickness of the bed and for each foot per mile by hydraulic gradient. The standard, or laboratory, coefficient of permeability is the same figure corrected to 60° F.

The coefficient of transmissibility (T) is the product of the thick­ ness, in feet, of the saturated part of a water-bearing bed and the field coefficient of permeability.

The coefficient of storage ($) of an aquifer is the volume of water it releases from or takes into storage per unit surface area of the aquifer per unit change in the component of head normal to that surface. The coefficient of storage is a dimensionless unit and is expressed as a decimal fraction.

Specific yield relates to the water that is free to drain by gravity from saturated water-bearing material. It is the fraction of a cubic foot of water that will drain by gravity from a cubic foot of saturated material. For practical purposes the specific yield equals the coef­ ficient of storage in water-table areas.

The specific capacity is used to indicate the relationship of well yield to drawdown and generally is expressed in terms of gallons per minute per foot of drawdown. The term implies that the ratio of yield to drawdown remains constant for any rate of withdrawal for any length of time. Because both the rate of withdrawal and the time element affect the specific capacity, the term should be considered approximate.

The moisture equivalent of a soil is the ratio of the weight of the water which the soil, after saturation, will retain against a centrifugal force of 1,000 times the pull of gravity to the weight of the soil when dry, or it may be expressed as the ratio of the volume of water to the bulk volume of sample. The moisture equivalent usually is expressed as a percentage.

LABORATORY TESTS

Laboratory tests to determine the physical and hydraulic properties of 104 samples of loose sand and coherent sand obtained from well cuttings and outcrops in Dimmit and Zavala Counties were tested in the hydrologic laboratory of the IT. S. Geological Survey in Wash­ ington, D. C. Determinations included porosity, permeability, ap­ parent specific gravity, centrifuge-moisture equivalent, and specific yield. The average computed porosity of 89 samples from the Carrizo sand was about 40 percent (table 6). The permeability ranged from 3 to 1,440 and averaged 286 gallons per day per square foot. The

PRINCIPAL AQUIFERS 67

specific yield averaged about 37 percent. The coefficients determined in the laboratory generally are not directly applicable to field prob­ lems because of factors such as failure to get representative samples, failure to repack samples in original state, and deterioration of samples before testing.

The values of specific yield from laboratory samples were cal­ culated using an adjustment proposed by Piper (1933) and currently used in the Survey's hydrologic laboratory. The adjustment is based on the experimental relationship between the moisture equivalent and the specific retention. The values for specific yield ranged from 20.1 to 41.8 percent and averaged 36.5 percent. The specific yield under field conditions may be considerably less than the laboratory results indicate. The magnitude generally considered correct for a sand ranges from 10 to 20 percent. Alluvial materials tested in the Safford Valley in Arizona (Gatewood and others, 1950, p. 92) averaged 16 percent. If it is assumed that the average annual recharge to the Winter Garden district for the 18-year period 1930-48 was 22,000 acre-feet as determined for the irrigation year 1937-38, the decline in water level would indicate a specific yield of about 10 percent. Thus, it is concluded that the specific-yield values calculated by the laboratory method are probably too high.

PUMPING TESTS

Pumping tests were made in the field to determine the coefficients of transmissibility and storage. In 1930, pumping tests using the method of Thiem (1906) were made in three localities in the Winter Garden district. The average coefficient of permeability of the Carrizo sand was computed to be about 200 gallons per day per square foot.

In 1948, additional pumping tests were made, and the results of the tests were analyzed by means of the following equation developed byTheis (1935):

whereu=1.87f*S

Tt

In this equation, s is the drawdown in feet at any point in the vicinity of a well pumped at a uniform rate; Q is the discharge of the well, in gallons per minute; T is the transmissibility of the aquifer, in gallons a day per foot; r is the distance from the discharging well to the point of observation in feet ; S is the coefficient of storage ; and t is the time the well has been pumped, in days. Water-level data from the pumped well were analyzed using the Theis recovery method (Wenzel, 1942, p. 95).

68 GEOLOGY AND GROUND WATER, WINTER GARDEN, TEXAS

A pumping test was made in Zavala County about 91/2 miles north­ east of Crystal City. During the test, well N5-91 was pumped, and the effect of pumping was observed in wells N5-90, N5-92, N5-93, and N5-95. Each of the wells completely penetrated the Carrizo sand, which had an average thickness of 194 feet. The wells had been idle for about 3 weeks prior to the test, and the water levels in all the wells were measured daily for 1 wreek prior to the test to determine the regional trend in water levels. On February 14 the pump in well N5-91 was started and run continuously for 48 hours at the average rate of 934 gallons per minute. Periodic water-level measurements were made in the observation wells throughout the period of pump­ ing and in the pumped well for 6^2 hours after pumping ceased. Representative data and calculations are shown on figures 17, 18, and 19.

Another pumping test was made in 1948 on wells N7-167 and N7-168 in Dimmit County, 3Vsj miles northwest of Carrizo Springs, where the thickness of the Carrizo averages about 150 feet. The water levels in both wells were measured daily for 1 week prior to the test. On October 19, well N7-167 was pumped continuously for 8 hours while the drawdown of the water level in well N7-168 was observed at intervals of about 15 minutes. At the end of the pumping period the recovery in the pumped wTell was observed periodically for 16 hours.

The coefficients of transmissibility and storage computed by the Theis method from the data collected during the tests were as follows:

INTERFERENCE BETWEEN WELLS

The cost of power to pump water from wells increases as the pumping lift increases. The pumping lift of a well is affected not only by its own withdrawals, but also by the withdrawals of wells surrounding it. Thus, the mutual interference of pumping wells is of economic importance in the Winter Garden district.

Wenzel (1942, p. 98) states that

As soon as a pump begins discharging water from a well that penetrates a water-bearing formation with a water table, a hydraulic gradient from all directions is established toward the well and the water table is lowered around the well. The water table soon assumes a form comparable to an inverted cone . . .

Under artesian conditions a similar cone of depression is formed on the piezometric surface. Other wells within the cone of depression experience a lowering of water level. The water levels will con­ tinue to decline, but at a decreasing rate unless the expansion of the

cone is stopped by a source of recharge. The size and rate of expan­ sion of the cone of depression are much greater in an artesian area than in a water-table area because the quantity of water released from storage per unit decline of pressure is many times less than the quantity that will drain per unit decline of the water table when dewatering the formation. Thus, interference effects are much more important in the artesian area- than in the water-table area.

The rate of development of the cone of depression of an artesian well is retarded when the cone extends into the outcrop area where water-table conditions prevail. The large difference in storage coeffi­ cient between the two areas is the principal factor causing the retarded development. If the recharge in the outcrop is sufficient to prevent appreciable lowering of the water table, the development of the cone will be further retarded and will, in time, halt. For practical purposes, when calculating artesian-pressure declines, it may be assumed that the outcrop acts as a source of recharge whether or not withdrawals exceed the average rate of recharge in the out­ crop. Figure 20 illustrates the declines of artesian pressure to be ex­ pected under assumptions based on observed conditions in small areas which may or may not be representative of the entire Winter Garden district.

The calculated values indicated on figure 20 are for 1 well pump­ ing 1 million gallons per day. If the distance to the outcrop were 10 miles, the decline would be within about 1 foot of its maximum value within 4 months; at greater distances from the outcrop, it would take longer times to approach maximum declines. The mu­ tual effect of pumping many wells may be calculated by employ­ ing the image-well theory as outlined by Kazmann (1946) in com­ bination with the Theis equation. Because of the unpredictable na­ ture of development in the Winter Garden district, estimates based on calculations of this type appear unwarranted. The purpose of figure 20, therefore, is to show the order of magnitude of interfer­ ence that may be expected by the addition of another well in the already heavily pumped Carrizo sand in the Winter Garden district and to give to the reader a better understanding of the causes of past declines of artesian pressure.

The development of the cone of depression around a well pumping in the outcrop area where water-table conditions prevail is relatively slow. Several years of continuous pumping from a well a few miles from the edge of the outcrop of a formation or a stream may show no noticeable effect on the normal development of the cone of de­ pression. Figure 21 shows the decline of the water table in the vicin­ ity of a well discharging 1 million gallons per day from an aquifer of infinite areal extent. It portrays the general order of magnitude

of declines expectable in the outcrop area. By comparison with figure 20, figure 21 shows that interference between wells in the outcrop is much less than in the artesian area. For example, the drawdown after 1 year at 1 mile from the pumping well would be about 1.5 feet as compared with about 13 feet in the artesian area where the outcrop is 10 miles from the pumping well.

DEPLETION OF THE RESERVOIR

In terms of reservoir depletion, dewatering of the sands in the Carrizo outcrop is of primary importance. A unit lowering of water level in the outcrop area represents a loss of storage per unit area about 1,000 times as great as a unit lowering of pressure in the arte­ sian area. If it is assumed that the annual rate of recharge is 20,000 acre-feet, that the rate of withdrawal will average 60,000 acre-feet, and that the specific yield is 10 percent, the average rate of decline of water levels in the outcrop (neglecting any contribution from artesian storage) is calculated to be about 2 feet per year over an area of 200,000 acres.

SALT-WATER LEAKS IN WELLS

Numerous irrigation wells and a few public-supply and stock wells in Dimmit and Zavala Counties have become contaminated by saline water from the Bigford member of the Mount Selman formation, which contains water of high mineral content, largely sodium chlo­ ride (common salt). The wells known to be affected by salt water are not confined to any one locality but are widely distributed among the noncontaminated wells in several of the irrigated areas in the central and southern parts of the district. Some of the wells that were most seriously affected have been abandoned; others, in which the contamination is slight, are in regular or part-time service but may have to be abandoned if the contamination increases.

The source of contamination is interformational leakage from the Bigford member of the Mount Selman formation into the Carrizo sand. The Bigford member consists chiefly of relatively impermeable beds of clay and shale that contain lenses of sand or sandstone. The clay and shale impede the vertical movement of the water within the Bigford member itself and also impede interformational leak­ age into the Carrizo sand. When wells penetrate the clay and shale, however, the seal is broken; and if the wells are not cased or if the casing is defective or improperly installed, water may move from one formation to the other. Prior to 1925, before the develop­ ment of large-scale irrigation, the artesian pressure in the Carrizo was higher than the pressure in the Bigford, and there appears to have been no appreciable contamination. In fact, it appears

508883 O 60 6

76 GEOLOGY AND GROUND WATER, WINTER GARDEN, TEXAS

probable that during that period water moved from the Carrizo into the sands of the Bigford through defective wells. As the pres­ sure in the Carrizo declined below that in the Bigford, however, movement of water was reversed and as a result the wells became contaminated.

Contamination of wells by salt water is detrimental for several reasons. Salt water has a highly corrosive action on the well casing and pumping equipment, and the water is injurious to the crops irrigated. Also, the soil of some of the irrigated farms has been seriously injured by water from contaminated wells.

In some contaminated wells in the Winter Garden district the chloride concentration in the water during prolonged periods of pumping is not very high, the salt water entering the well being greatly diluted by water from the fresh-water-bearing beds. When the pump is stopped, however, the salt water continues to enter the well, though perhaps at a slower rate; and being heavier than the fresh water, it accumulates in and around the well below the leak. Above the leak, however, the water in the well casing and pump, representing the water that entered at the close of the preceding period of pumping, remains comparatively fresh. Under conditions prevailing in the Winter Garden district, fresh water may rest on salt water in an idle well without appreciably mixing, and the con­ tact between the two may be sharply defined for a long time. These relations between fresh water and salt water provide a key for exploration to determine the locations of the salt-water leaks. The results of methods employed in exploration of contaminated wells are discussed by Thompson (1928) and Livingston and Lynch (1937). Contamination that is confined to the leaky wells and their imme­ diate vicinity is detrimental, but it is not so serious to the com­ munity as widespread contamination of the water-bearing forma­ tion. So far the Carrizo sand has not been noticeably affected except at individual wells, but continued neglect of leaky wells may result in widespread contamination.

All wells abandoned because of contamination and wells that can­ not be profitably repaired should be sealed from top to bottom. Sealing can be done by pumping cement or heavy mud into the hole through a tube, beginning at the bottom and continuing until the well is filled to the surface. No attempt should be made to seal a well by simply shoveling dirt or other debris in at the top; the filling material probably will bridge at some point above the bottom of the well and, although the well may appear to be sealed, voids may exist through which salt water can enter the well and move into the Carrizo sand.

LEONA FORMATION

The Leona formation is an important aquifer in the Batesville and La Pryor areas. Only 5 irrigation wells yielded water from the Leona formation in northern Zavala Comity in 1940, but by 1948 about 60 wells were in use. The withdrawal from the Leona forma­ tion between July 1, 1947, and June 30, 1948, was about 6,800 acre- feet, of which about 5,400 acre-feet was used to irrigate about 4,200 acres in the Batesville area and about 1,400 acre-feet was used on 900 acres east of the Nueces River near La Pryor.

Marked declines in yields of wells in the Leona formation during 1947-48 prompted many farmers in the Batesville area to drill wells to the Carrizo sand. Some of the wells along the western edge of the Leona formation penetrated only about 15 feet of saturated gravel, and when the water table declined 10-12 feet these wells began to fail. In the area of most recent development (south of Batesville on both sides of the Leona River), however, conditions have been more favorable.

The absence of long-term water-level records made quantitative conclusions regarding the potential development of ground water from the Leona formation speculative. From changes in well yields, however, it appears that the supply is not dependable during periods of extended drought.

The opportunities for recharge to the Leona deposits in Zavala County are as follows: From rainfall and local runoff on the surface of the Leona, seepage from the streams and flood plains when they are inundated, subsurface inflow from the north where the deposits are recharged principally from the underlying Edwards limestone, and percolation of irrigation water.

The relative importance of rainfall and runoff is unknown. Soil conditions and topography in some places are very favorable to the infiltration of water. If these conditions are extensive enough, large quantities of water may be' recharged during periods of heavy pre­ cipitation.

Livingston (1947, p. 16), referring to the Leona River observed that

*** the river bed is above the water table in the gravel both in Uvalde and Zavala Counties. Therefore, the river loses water by seepage, but, on the whole, the loss is comparatively small, owing to the presence of travertine and fine silt in the river bed which makes it nearly impermeable. During floods which cause the stream to overflow its banks, however, large quantities of water may seep into the underground reservoir.

Subsurface inflow to the area from the north is probably of minor importance. Calculations based on rough estimates of the thickness and permeability of the saturated material and hydraulic gradient

78 GEOLOGY AND GROUND WATER, WINTER GARDEN, TEXAS

indicate that the rate of inflow is probably a small percentage of the total recharge.

The rapid development of water for irrigation from the Carrizo could make irrigation losses a major source of recharge to the Leona deposits where permeable materials occur between the surface and the water table. This source may, however, increase the dissolved mineral content of the water in the Leona, as it leaches salts from the soil while percolating downward.

Further development of the Leona formation for a supplemental irrigation supply appears favorable. The wells may be spaced fairly close to each other (one-fourth-mile spacing) without appreciably reducing individual well yields. However, variations in water-bearing properties reduce the certainty of obtaining successful irrigation wells. Further data are needed to determine the thickness, nature, and extent of saturated deposits.

QUALITY OF WATER

The general chemical quality of the ground water in the Winter Garden district is shown by the analyses in table 12. Most of the analyses were made by the U. S. Geological Survey, but a few of the earlier analyses w^ere made by the Bureau of Industrial Chemistry, of the University of Texas.

As rain falls through the atmosphere, it is relatively free from dis­ solved minerals, though every drop carries dissolved atmospheric gases, of which carbon dioxide is the most important because it in­ creases the solvent power of the water. As it percolates into the earth the rainwater dissolves the more soluble minerals. The amount and kind of mineral matter dissolved in natural water depends upon the chemical composition and physical structure of the rocks with which the water comes in contact, the temperature, the pressure, and the duration of contact.

Formations deposited in marine waters originally contained sea water in all pore spaces, but the sea water eventually may be flushed out by rainwater percolating in from the outcrop area. In highly permeable rocks that permit good circulation of ground water, the flushing action may have proceeded to a considerable depth downdip. Less permeable formations may not be flushed as far downdip and may contain water of poor quality close to the surface in areas where the circulation is particularly poor.

MINERAL CONSTITUENTS

Silica (SiO 2 ) is found in most natural water. Silica has no effect on the use of water for irrigation or domestic purposes, but it does contribute to boiler scale, particularly in high-pressure boilers.

QUALITY OF WATER 79

Iron (Fe) is dissolved from practically all rocks and also from iron pipes. Iron generally occurs in water as ferrous bicarbonate. When present in large amounts, it adds to the hardness and causes an unpleasant astringent taste. If a water contains much more than 0.3 part per million (ppm) of iron, the excess may separate out when exposed to the air and settle as a reddish sediment which stains cloth­ ing and plumbing fixtures. Most of the iron can be removed from solution by aeration, which causes the iron to precipitate, followed by settling or filtration. Iron is not harmful in irrigation waters.

Appreciable amounts of calcium (Ca) and magnesium (Mg) are found in water that has been in contact with limestone, dolomite, calcareous gravel or sand, gypsum, and many other rocks. The salts of calcium and magnesium make water hard and in the Winter Garden district are generally characteristic of water from shallow wells.

Sodium (Na) and potassium (K) are found in all natural water, although generally there is much less potassium than sodium. Sodium is the chief basic constituent in sea water and most brines. Large percentages of sodium are undesirable for irrigation because they cause the soil to become hard and untillable.

Bicarbonate (HCO3 ) is found in nearly all natural waters. Bicar­ bonate results from the action on carbonate and other rocks of the carbon dioxide dissolved in water. Bicarbonate in large amounts causes the water to have an objectionable taste. Carbonate generally is not found in natural water except in that which is strongly alkaline.

Sulfate (SO4 ) may be dissolved in large quantities from gypsum, from alkali deposits of sodium sulfate, or from the oxidation of iron sulfides, principally pyrite. Sulfate of calcium and magnesium con­ tributes to hard boiler scale. Sulfate is undesirable in drinking water if the concentration is more than 250 ppm, particularly if the mag­ nesium content is high (epsom salt is magnesium sulfate).

Chloride (Cl) has little effect on the utility of water except when present in large amounts. Appreciable quantities of chloride in com­ bination with calcium and magnesium may increase the corrosiveness of water. Chloride is harmful to plants if present in excessive amounts, and water having a chloride salt content exceeding about 500 ppm will taste salty to most people.

Fluoride (F) commonly occurs in rocks, but most fluorides are relatively insoluble. The amount of fluoride in natural water seldom exceeds a few parts per million. In small amounts, fluoride inhibits tooth decay in children, but excessive quantities cause mottling of tooth enamel if used during calcification of the teeth.

Nitrate (NO3 ) is considered to be the final oxidation product of nitrogenous organic material. High concentrations of nitrate may serve as an indicator of contamination by sewage or other organic

80 GEOLOGY AND GROUND WATER, WINTER GARDEN, TEXAS

wastes. However, many wells yield water high in nitrate without apparent contamination by harmful bacteria.

Boron (B) in appreciable amounts has been found to be detri­ mental to citrus fruits and many other crops. Plant species differ markedly in their tolerance to high concentrations of boron; the permissible limits of boron for several classes of irrigation waters are shown in table 8.

The dissolved solids the residue on evaporation represents the approximate total of the dissolved mineral substance in solution, in­ cluding any organic matter and water of crystallization. The palat- ability of water is affected by the amount of dissolved solids con­ tained in the water. Water containing less than 500 ppm of dissolved solids is usually satisfactory for most uses. The amount of dissolved solids in irrigation water is commonly expressed as tons per acre- foot, which may be computed by multiplying the number of parts per million of dissolved solids by 0.00136.

Hardness is generally caused by the calcium and magnesium pres­ ent in the water. It is usually recognized by the increased amount of soap required to make a good lather. Temporary or carbonate hardness is caused principally by bicarbonates of calcium and magnesium and is that part of the hardness that can be removed by boiling. Perma­ nent or noncarbonate hardness is caused by the other dissolved salts of calcium and magnesium. The degree of hardness can be expressed as follows: Water having a hardness of 60 ppm or less, soft; 61-120 ppm, moderately hard; 121-200 ppm, hard; and more than 200 ppm, very hard.

The percent sodium shows the relative proportion of sodium ions to total cations and is used as an index of the suitability of a water for irrigation. It is a ratio of the sodium to the total positive ions (sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium) in the water, all ex­ pressed in equivalents per million. A classification for the suitability of a water for irrigation in arid areas based on the percent sodium and the dissolved solids has been suggested by Wilcox (1948). Anal­ yses of water samples collected in the Winter Garden district are classified accordingly on figure 22. Other factors affecting the suit-

ability of a water for irrigation, however, are type of soil, subsur­ face drainage, type of crop grown, amount and distribution of rain­ fall, and quantity of water applied.

The specific conductance (micromhos at 25°C) of a water is a measure of its ability to conduct electricity. The conductance varies with the concentration and degree of ionization of the different min­ erals in solution and with the temperature of the water. When con­ sidered in conjunction with results of determinations for other constituents, specific conductance gives a good indication of the total quantity of dissolved minerals in the water.

The hydrogen-ion concentration (expressed as pH) of a water is a measure of its acidity or alkalinity, a factor which has an impor­ tant bearing on the corrosiveness of the water. Values lower than 7.0 denote acidity and values higher than 7.0 denote alkalinity. Acid waters generally are more corrosive than alkaline waters.

QUALITY OF WATER IN THE WATER-BEARING FORMATIONS

The water in the Indio formation exhibits marked differences in chemical character from place to place, probably because the sands are deviously connected and there is little circulation in the water­ bearing beds. In 12 samples the dissolved solids ranged from 664 to 3,740 ppm, and the percent sodium ranged from 29 to 83. The upper beds may produce water Usable for stock in some places near the outcrop, but the water in the lower part of the formation is generally too highly mineralized for most uses.

The Carrizo sand generally contains water of good quality. The water in the outcrop area is low in dissolved solids but generally is hard because of the solution of calcareous material present in the Carrizo in the outcrop area. The water obtained downdip, however, contains more dissolved solids but is softer because of base-exchange reactions which occur as the water moves downdip through the sand. In 79 samples the dissolved solids ranged from 270 to 7,430 ppm, and the percent sodium ranged from 2 to 97. Analyses of water from the Carrizo sand which reveal high dissolved solids are generally indica­ tive of contamination from the Bigford member of the Mount Selman formation.

Shallow wells in the Bigford member of the Mount Selman forma­ tion northeast of La Pryor yield water of satisfactory quality for domestic and stock use. Downdip, however, the water is highly min­ eralized and is unfit for any use.

Although no samples of water were obtained from the post-Big- ford beds of the Mount Selman formation, the water is reported to be highly mineralized. Ranchers in the eastern part of the district reported that it is undesirable even for stock use.

SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS 83

Only one sample was obtained from a well that definitely draws water from the Cook Mountain formation; the water was of good quality. Ranchers reported, however, that the water from the Cook Mountain generally was too highly mineralized for stock use. Several shallow wells draw water for domestic use from the formation east of the district in Frio County, but only one of these wells was re­ ported to yield water of good quality.

Water from the Leona formation is generally hard but relatively low in dissolved solids. In 3 samples the dissolved solids ranged from 368 to 536 ppm and the percent sodium ranged from 6 to 15. Thus the quality of the water is excellent for irrigation.

SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS

The Carrizo sand and the Leona formation constitute the prin­ cipal aquifers in the Winter Garden district. Water in sufficient quan­ tities and of suitable quality for irrigation is available, from each. The Carrizo sand is by far the more important because of its greater thickness and extent. In part of northern Zavala County, potable water is available for domestic and stock supplies from the Bigford member of the Mount Selman formation. Water from the Indio for­ mation generally is highly mineralized, but in some areas it is suit­ able for domestic and stock supplies. Other water-bearing formations present in the area generally yield highly mineralized water and are relatively unimportant as aquifers.

Irrigation development and annual withdrawals of ground water have been variable. Profits made by the irrigation farmers in 1929- 30 were sufficient to stimulate development. During the depression that followed, prices of farm products were low, and the irrigated acreage was materially reduced. Europe's entry into World War II increased the prices of farm products, again stimulating irrigation development, which has continued at a rapid pace through the post­ war period to the present time. Ground-water withdrawals from the Carrizo for the crop-year 1947-48 were estimated to be 55,000 acre- feet, as compared with 27,000 acre-feet for the 1929-30 season and 22,000 acre-feet during the 1937-38 season. Withdrawals from the Leona formation increased about tenfold from 1940 to 1948, when about 6,800 acre-feet was pumped.

The decline of water levels in the outcrop area of the Carrizo sand indicates that the present rate of withdrawals exceeds the average rate of natural recharge, which is probably about 25,000 acre-feet per year. If withdrawals continue at this rate, it is estimated that the recharge area (Carrizo outcrop) will be dewatered. at an average rate of about 2 feet per year. Continued irrigation expansion would, of course, accelerate the dewatering.

84 GEOLOGY AND GROUND WATER, WINTER GARDEN, TEXAS

Intensive water-conservation practices by the farmers of the dis­ trict would reduce the rate of depletion of the aquifer and prolong the high productivity of the district. Conservative irrigation and farming practices recommended by various private and governmental farm agencies if followed carefully will tend to conserve the water resources of the area. Further use of surface reservoirs to collect storm runoff for irrigation use should be considered wherever pos­ sible.

Perhaps the most imminent problem related to continued expan­ sion of irrigation is the decline of artesian pressure, which directly affects the cost of pumping water. Although the water stored in the Carrizo sand is in no danger of being depleted completely for many years, the increased pumping lifts caused by increased withdrawals eventually may make it uneconomical to pump water for irrigation. During the period of record 1929-48, the water level declined in some areas more than 90 feet. Excessive declines caused by con­ centrated withdrawals of ground water may be reduced by spacing wells farther apart.

A substantial number of irrigation wells have been abandoned because the water became too highly mineralized. Tests on these wells showed that highly mineralized water from the Bigford member of the Mount Selman formation was entering the wells through leaks in or along the sides of the casings. A better grade of casing and a more effective seal above the fresh-water-bearing material would help to prevent leakage. Wells that are too expensive to repair, unless care­ fully plugged, will likely lead to widespread contamination.

Further studies are needed to refine the estimates of recharge made in this investigation and to reevaluate the ground-water potential peri­ odically. Extensive studies should be made to determine the rate of natural recharge more accurately and to evaluate the possibilities further of increasing the recharge by artificial means. The Leona formation should be extensively studied to determine its thickness, areal extent, and water-bearing characteristics so that quantitative conclusions can be reached as to its potential development. Pumpage inventories and frequent water-level measurements should be made so that ground-water conditions may be reevaluated every few years. The more acute the problems become, the greater the need for ac­ curate and current information on the ground-water conditions.
