CROIX, U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS, 1060-73 ABSTRACT Ground-water levels at selected wells in St. Qroix* the largest of three U.S. Virgin Islands* u»ere -nonitored from 1969-73. Continuous re- cording instruments were installed at Mahogany* Castle Coakley* Airport* and Adventure wells* in central St. Croix, Monthly observations of in- stantaneous ground-water levels were also made at tu»o wells near Barren Spat and River Gut. Precipitation data from National Weather Service sta- tions near the Mahogany* Airport* and Castle Coakley wells are shown with the watei level data. INTRODUCTION Purpose and Scope St. Croix* the largest of the three U.S. Virgin Islands (about 84 square miles) is located about 50 miles east-southeast of San Juan* Puerto Rico (figure 1). Water is not an abundant resource in St. Croix* with no perennial streams and limited ground-water resources (Jordan* 1975). The aquifers are small and shallow and in many areas produce saline water. The population of St. Croix has increased dramatically to about 48*000 (1980 census). As a result of the population growth* water de- mands have also increased significantly. Ground water* although limited* is an important component df the water supplies of St. Croix. Water jells contribute about 1.1 million gallons per day (^gal/d) for domestic uses in the island ( Fernando Gonez-Go'nez* personal communication). 64°50' 64046' 64°40' 64°36' I 17°45 17°40f CARIBBEAN SEA 67°00 f CARIBBEAN SEA 66°00' 65°00 J EXPLANATION 1 OBSERVATION WELL R«4 RECORDING WELL RAINFALL STATION 18°00' LANDS 8T.

CROIX, U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS, 1969-73 Purpose and Scope - Continued In 1967* in cooperation with the Water Resources Research Institute of the Caribbean Research Institute/ Collage of the U.S. Virgin Islands* the U.S. Geological Survey initiated ? project to collect ground-water data in St, Croix. The purpose of the project was to obtain baseline water- level data at selected malls throughout the island. Ground-water levels are necessary for future studies of tha ground-watar resources in St. Croix and to assist in the management and pumpaga-optimization of axisting well fields. Climate of St. Croix Precipitation over St, Croix avaragas 40 inches per year (figure 2)* with a range from 30 to 50 inches (Jordan* 1°75). Most of the rain occurs from May to Saptember* although frequent droughts can occur during any period of the year. January to March are the driest months. Rainfall effects on the recharge of the aquifers in St. Croix have not been da- fined. The data in this report includes rainfall at selected National (leather Service Stations that could be related to ground-water levels. COLLECTION OF GROUND-WATER DATA Watej level date presented in this report were obtained from a net- aork of observation uiells oparatad by tha U.S. Geological Survay* Water Resources Division* in St. Croix. The walls are located at the most important aquifers throughout .tha island. Watar levals are reported frou six (6) observation uiells* of which four (4) wara aquioped with automatic- 1963 1964 0 12345 I I II I I 10 MILES Figure 2.

CROIX, U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS, 1969-73 COLLECTION OF GROUND-WATER DATA - Continued continuous racorders. At the two other wells* water levels were measured about monthly as instantaneous values. Water-level measurements are given in feet referenced to a land sur- face datura (Isd). The land-surface datum is approximately equal to the land elevation in the vicinity o* the w-all. A measuring point is also shown for each well* also relative to the Isd. In some of the wells* a measuring soint higher than the Isd is used. At walls equipped with recorders* the nean-daily water level is shown. This contrasts with prior publications (ftobison* T,M.* 1973)* where only every fifth day is shown. At non-reco«~d ing wells the instantaneous values deter .nined during the indicated day sre shown. Water levels are reported to the nearest hundredth of a foot (0.01 ft). Periods of missing record at the walls equipped j/ith recorders are shown blank. A well description precedes each tabla of d?ta. Included are gen- eral characteristics of th<? veil, location* aquifer formation* datum to which elevations are referenced* and the period of racord. Additional information on wells and tha data published in this report nay oe available from the San Juan office of the U.S, Geological Survey* Caribbaan District.
