Summary
Abstract: The surficial aquifer system underlies Palm Beach, Martin, and St. Lucie Counties and primarily consists of sand, clay, silt, shell, and limestone of Holocene, Pleistocene, and Pliocene age. Its thickness is variable (decreasing westward and northward) and is estimated to be as much as 400 feet in Palm Beach County (Miller, 1987; Shine and others, 1989), 210 feet in Martin County (Miller, 1980), ...
