Identification

Abstract

The dataset exhibits the piezometric level of the regional Chateauguay aquifer, covering the Chateauguay River watershed. The map was realised from collected data for 153 wells and roc piezometer, about 3500 SIH boreholes, 30 discharges, 13 MDDEP observation wells, about 1000 measurements in the Mercier area and 29 levels from the consultant reports. The map resulting shows a groundwater level decrease from the United States high land toward the St. Lawrence River.
