Summary

Water samples collected from 79 wells and 3 springs in the Edwards aquifer were analyzed for more than 50 properties or constituents, most of which affect the suitability of the water for domestic use. The samples were analyzed for bacteria; major inorganic constituents; minor elements, including heavy metals; and pesticides.
