additional rainfall. Therefore, the runoff was high. Although the
hydraulic gradient between the water table and the piezometric
surface indicated that water moved downward most of the time, a
reversal in direction was noted for dry periods.
 Hydrographs of water levels in wells in the southwestern part
of the Green Swamp area (fig. 25, well 805-155-1 and fig, 26, well
808-155-2) show that the water table fluctuated between 5 and 10
feet during the period 1959-62. The water table remained near the
surface during the wet years of 1959 and 1960, and the aquifer
afforded little capacity for storing: rainfall. During the dry years
of 1961 and 1962, the water table was progressively lowered by
pumping from the Floridan aquifer south of the Green Swamp.
