No water was reported from this horizon in the wells at Glassboro 
and Greenwich, but there is the usual possibility, or even a probability, 
that the borings at these points passed the Eedbank waters without 
revealing 4 thein, particularly in the case of the Glassboro well. Further 
explorations should be made for this water throughout the area shown 
on the map (PI. II) to be probably underlain by it, and also in the 
region to the east and southeast for at least several miles. A small 
overflow from this horizon was reported in the new deep well at Asbury 
Park at a depth of 280 feet. 
The materials in which the Eedbank waters occur are moderately 
coarse gray sands, and as they are quite thick the amount of water 
they contain is large. 
CHESAPEAKE HORIZONS. 
The water-bearing horizons in the Chesapeake formation are at least 
eight or nine in number, and they underlie nearly all of the southeast- 
ern portion of "South Jersey." They have been studied with special 
care by Mr. Lewis Woolman, who has been able to identify the various 
New Jersey members of the Chesapeake formation in many of the wells. 
He gives the following table of the Chesapeake water horizons which 
are represented in the wells at Atlantic City or Ocean City:
