Assignment: Use the potentiometric data for the wells (circles, height in fet above an arbitrary datum such as sea level) to contour the groundwater surface. Draw arrows showing the direction of regional groundwater flow based on this potentiometric map. Note the red dashed line is the concentration of total dissolved solids.
