Activity1.5: Identifying Artesian Wells A. On the following map, solid contour lines show the land surface elevation. Dashed contour lines represent the water-pressure surface (potentiometric surface) of a confined aquifer (see figure on page 3). This is the height to which water will rise in a well that is drilled into the aquifer. 1. Find and connect the points on the map where the two sets of contour lines have the same elevation. 2. Shade in the area on this map where wells would flow at the surface (artesian) without having to be pumped
