East Fork Poplar River Ground-Water Monitoring Program in 1984. The 

 funds were provided by the Montana Coal Board. Ground-water quantity 

 and quality are being monitored utilizing 21 observation wells. 



In 1984, 11 observation wells were drilled and added to the original 

 network of 10 wells (Figure 4). Seven of these wells were drilled by 

 the Saskatchewan Power Corporation. Nine wells were cased with 4- 

 inch PVC and two with 2-inch PVC. Gamma, density and resistivity 

 logs were run on all of the boreholes by the Saskatchewan Power 

 Corporation. 



Some development work on the wells was performed after drilling, but 

 not sufficient to obtain good water quality samples. This work will 

 be continued in the spring of 1985 when water will be sampled from 

 these wells.
