Number falling within the range area indicates the qualitative rating for aquifer susceptibility (adapted from Hargrave, 2005). Black Hills National Forest Boundary Susceptibility Ratings Explanation: The susceptibility range is the sum of ratings for susceptibility parameters of the aquifer. The parameters used for the Deadwood aquifer are rock type, overlying material, Deadwood Formation Present in Subsurface and joints affecting the hydrogeologic units of the Deadwood Fm. The ratings for these parameters are: Rock Type; 5-8 for sandstone; Overlying Material; 5-10 for alluvium and negative 5-10 for gravel, sand and clay mixture and Joints; 5-7. The ratings suggested for the parameters are from Aller et al. (1987) and Davis et al., (1994.).

This dependence on groundwater raises important questions regarding the Madison and Minnelusa aquifers in and near the Black Hills of South Dakota, including groundwater availability, the effects of water use or drought, mixing of regional flow and local recharge, and the effects of capture zones of springs and wells on the groundwater-flow system. These questions are best addressed with a three-dimensional numerical groundwater-flow model that
