In March 2016, the U.S. Geological Survey drilled a borehole, MA-FSW-750-0100, through the unconsolidated sediments and 1.5 m into the bedrock in East Falmouth, Massachusetts, to improve understanding of the glacial history and hydrologic properties of the Cape Cod aquifer. Prior to drilling, candidate sites were investigated using surface geophysical methods. Passive seismic horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratio (HVSR) methods were used to estimate the depth of the unconsolidated deposits over bedrock. Transient electromagnetic (TEM) surveys were conducted to characterize the lithology and salinity of formation water in the subsurface, which was used to plan the borehole completion. The specific conductance of the fluids extracted from drill cuttings was measured at the time of drilling. Borehole MA-FSW-750-0100 was logged with geophysical methods including natural gamma radiation and electromagnetic induction (EMI) logs to identify changes in the lithology and fluid properties of the subsurface. A pulsed magnetic resonance borehole tool was used to characterize hydraulic properties of the aquifer. Borehole nuclear magnetic resonance (bNMR) logs were collected to measure the water content and estimate the pore-size distribution and hydraulic conductivity (K) over the depth of the borehole.
