From a constant head test on. fine sand, the following data were recrded.

Prob 3
Pumping test was carried out in a
layer of soil extending to a depth
of 28 m. The initial position of
the water table is located 4m
below the ground. Observation wells
were sighted 33.5m & 97.5m
from the pumping well. Water is pumped
at 248.4 m³/hr and when steady
levels were attained, the drawdowns
at the observation wells were observed
to be lilm and 0.54m respectively.
