Description The Washington State Department of Ecology and the U.S. Geological Survey have completed a cooperative study of the hydraulic interaction between the lower Dungeness River and the aquifer underlying the Sequim-Dungeness peninsula in northeastern Clallam County. Vertical hydraulic gradients in mini-piezometers generally were negative between river miles 11.8 and 3.6, indicating loss of water from the river to ground, with the loss decreasing in the downstream direction. The results of this study will be used to calibrate a transient, three-dimensional groundwater flow model of the Sequim-Dungeness peninsula.

Digital access to the data collected during this project is available via the USGS national water information system under project number WA 435 00: http://waterdata.usgs.gov/wa/nwis/nwis
