Maryland Water-Use Data, 1998

The dataset MDWU98 was created to provide the locations of MDE permitted
ground-water withdrawal sites in Maryland for use within a Geographic
Information System.

MDWU98 is a point coverage that represents the locations of wells for the State
of Maryland that are permitted to withdraw 10,000 gallons or more per day by
the Maryland Department of the Environment (MDE). Each site has the permit
number, permit amount, reported withdrawal, aquifer code, and type of use.
Information contained in the dataset comes from the U.S.Geological Survey
site-specific water-use database (SWUDS).

Any use of trade, product, or firm names is for descriptive purposes only and
does not imply endorsement by the U.S. Government.

Although this Federal Geographic Data Committee-compliant metadata file is
intended to document the data set in nonproprietary form, as well as in
ARC/INFO format, this metadata file may include some ARC/INFO-specific
terminology.
