HALBERG EDITOR'S NOTE: The article "Ground-Water Resources of Cape Cod, Massachusetts'* was pre- sented before the Cape Cranberry Club in Harwich last March. The author. Henry H. Hallbere. is engineer in charge U. S. Geological Survey, Boston, Mass. Lack of space has orevented this article appearing in an earlier issue. (Continued from last month) As explained previously, there are two chief types of glacial ma- terial on Cape Cod, namely, the till and the outwash deposits. The till will furnish only relatively small amounts of water because of its low permeability. Water does not pass freely through this type of material. However, wells tap-. ping git can usually supply plenty of water for household, drinking, and sanitary needs. In the mor- aines mentioned, the one on the east shore of Buzzards Bay, and the one on the north side of the Cape, till deposits predominate. Hence shallow ground-water sup- plies should be less plentiful there than in other parts of the region. In parts of these areas glacial out- wash sediments may be interbed- ded with or may underlie the mo- rainic material, and may furnish appreciable quantities of water. It would require test drilling to determine if such is the case. Also the Cretaceous sands and gravels underlying the morainic deposits at considerable depth may givt copious supplies if it is found nec- essary to tap them. The outwash sands and graveb deposited by melt water issuing from th
