ABSTRACT the Coeur d’Alene Mountains to the east. The aquifer is identified as the sole-source water supply for the greater The Rathdrum Prairie overlies part of a regional Coeur d’Alene and Spokane metropolitan areas. Our ground-water source, known as the Rathdrum Prairie- study will focus on the 615-square-km part in Idaho, the aquifer, that covers 1,055 square km in Rathdrum Prairie aquifer. Spokane County, Washington, and Kootenai and Bonner counties, Idaho. The aquifer is considered a sole-source In 1978, the aquifer was designated “sole source,” water supply for the greater Coeur d’Alene and Spokane which qualified it for protection under the 1974 metropolitan areas. The 615-square-km part in Idaho is Federal Safe Drinking Water Act. Since then, the called the Rathdrum Prairie aquifer. It extends from Lake area’s rapid growth in both population and irrigation Pend Oreille south and west to the Idaho-Washington demand continues to strain the aquifer’s capability. state line. The aquifer occupies a glacially scoured Consequently, to answer civic concerns about the aquifer trough filled with highly permeable, coarse-grained, requires reconstructing the broader geologic history of catastrophically deposited glacial outwash. the region. This must begin with a clear understanding of the subsurface geology of the Rathdrum Prairie; Five geologic cross-sections of the valley have been however, developing an accurate predictive model of created using 630 gravity measurements, 146 of which its structure has been difficult because of its complex were collected specifically for our study to complement history. Nonetheless, knowing what the limits are for existing data. The data were modeled in 2¾ dimensions, this critical aquifer depends on scientific analysis that and the regional trend caused by crustal thickening measures its actual extent, recharge potential, and future to the east has been removed. The models present a expectations. Determining the depth and geometry of generally smooth valley floor with an incised channel the bedrock surface is the first step.

Previous gravity surveys (Purves, BASEMENT ROCKS 1969; Hammond, 1974; Cady and Meyer, 1976a) and seismic refraction and reflection studies (Newcomb and The country rocks surrounding, and presumably others, 1973; Gerstel and Palmer, 1994) have focused on underlying, the Rathdrum Prairie are mostly relatively small sections of the aquifer and do not produce Precambrian, but intrusions as young as Eocene are also an overall subsurface view of the Rathdrum Prairie.

The Latah sediments of the Rathdrum-Spokane valley may have been completely covered by one or more TERTIARY GEOLOGY basalt flows during the final extrusions of the Columbia River basalt.

The Latah sediments consist predominantly Lake.

TIDAL AND INSTRUMENT DRIFT CORRECTIONS GRAVITY DATA REDUCTION All instrumental readings in the field require a Because our survey is using gravity measurements correction to compensate for the effects of instrument from the two previous studies, various reductions to all drift and earth tides. Instrument drift may occur with these field measurements are necessary to properly model the Lacoste & Romberg gravity meter even though and interpret the combined gravity data. Reductions its integral parts are housed in a vacuum at a fixed must be consistent for each data set in the final product temperature.

Floods. Measured densities of the basement rocks range from 2.64 to 2.80 g-cm-3, with an average of 2.67 g-cm-3 (Purves, 1969; Birch, 1942; Harrison and others, 1972). The densities of the Columbia River basalt fall into a very broad range from 2.78 g-cm-3 for vesicular samples to 3.21 g-cm-3 for massive samples. Latah sediments have a measured dry density of 1.09-1.62 g-cm-3 and a saturated density of 2.13-2.42 (Hosterman, 1960; Purves, 1969). The gravels of the Missoula Floods vary widely in their densities because of the influence of different particle sizes on porosity, as well as the presence of any cementation. By using a source rock density of 2.60- 2.80 g-cm-3 and porosity ranging from 20 percent for cemented gravels to 40 percent for coarse uncemented gravels, a dry bulk density range of 1.56 to 2.24 g-cm-3 can be inferred. Given this dry density and porosity range, the saturated gravel density range is calculated at 1.96 to 2.44 g-cm-3. Measuring the densities of surface samples is quite simple, but extending these densities to subsurface gravels should be done with caution.

The density information introduced above is difficult to model. The contrast in density between bedrock and basalt is very small, as is also that between Latah sediments and flood gravels. Adding to this problem is the uncertainty about the locations of basalt dikes and remaining basalt deposits, and the location and quantity of Latah sediments. A complex geologic environment probably exists beneath the prairie, considering the numerous reworking episodes that have occurred. Differentiating the basalt deposits from bedrock or the Latah sediments from gravels is nearly impossible through a gravity model because an infinite number of combinations may create the same signature. Because of Figure 8. Bouguer gravity map of the Rathdrum Prairie showing a regional trend of +1.1 mGal/km east. the locally complex setting and small density contrasts, the geologic models have been simplified to elements that will materially affect gravity signatures.

With a detailed gravity survey, however, small variations The rocks of the Belt Supergroup, Cretaceous in the local gravity field can be accurately detected. intrusions, other dikes and sills, and Miocene basalt have These anomalies can presumably be attributed to buried all been combined for the model and are referred to as geologic surfaces that can be readily modeled.

Because the densities of surface density of 1.7 g-cm-3, and the intermingled sands and rocks can be accurately measured and mapped, doing clays are modeled as saturated sediments with a density so provides a starting point for estimating subsurface of 2.1 g-cm-3. The justification for these densities is densities. twofold: They are well within the range of average measured and calculated densities, and they provide the Numerous studies have documented the surface most realistic model when the seismic refraction bedrock densities of rocks in and around the Rathdrum Prairie. tie of Newcomb and others (1953) is imposed.

Figure 10a. The Idaho Road (Washington) profile is at the western end of the Rathdrum Prairie. At this point, the valley appears to be generally V-shaped, with a small bench on the southern edge of the profile. A deeper section in the middle may be the result of fluvial erosion. The valley is only half as wide at this location, as it is 8 km to the west at Idaho Road (Idaho). Based on the refraction profile of Newcomb and others (1953), the maximum depth to bedrock in this profile has been fixed to a depth of 152 m below the ground surface at the indicated position. The maximum aquifer thickness is 216 m, and the lowest elevation of the bedrock-sediment interface is 426 m.

Figure 10b. The Corbin Road profile is 5 km east of the Idaho Road (Washington) profile. This profile is characterized by a generally smooth floor and an apparent embedded valley on the north edge, with shallow benches on both sides of the profile.

It is characterized by what appears to be an incised river channel in the center of the valley (Rathdrum River?) and a perched depression on the north side. The maximum sediment thickness is 332 m, and the lowest elevation of the bedrock-sediment interface is 337 m. This model does not conclusively prove or disprove that this location was overridden by the Cordilleran ice sheet.

Figure 10d. The Idaho Highway 41 profile is the widest of the north-south profiles. The incised valley evident on the Idaho Road (Idaho) profile is less apparent here. Instead, there is a significant feature on the southern side of the valley. The interface is characterized by a smooth, undulating surface. Because of the wide, smooth profile, Cordilleran glaciation possibly did override this location. The maximum aquifer thickness is 356 m, and lowest elevation of the bedrock-sediment interface is 319 m.

Figure 10e. The Hayden Avenue profile is the only east-west profile. This makes accurate modeling particularly difficult because of the east-west regional trend, causing the shape of this profile to be strongly affected by the trend correction factor. The general bedrock surface has a smooth, undulating character similar to the Idaho Highway 41 profile. Evidence of Pleistocene glaciation across this profile is inconclusive. The valley appears to be deeper on the eastern side, but that may be an influence of the regional trend. The maximum aquifer thickness is 283 m, and the lowest elevation of the bedrock-sediment interface is 395 m.
