Site Description for Boundary Waters (19S/2W-2C7-11)

LOCATION: Latitude 32º 33' 13", longitude -117º 03' 39" (NAD27) in San Diego County, California. Wells are located 200 feet east of 2223 Dairy Mart Road, 1/2 mile south of Interstate Highway 5 in San Ysidro, California.

SITE INFORMATION: Land-surface altitude is 35 feet (NGVD29) above mean sea level from 24000 scale topographic map.

INSTRUMENTATION: None.

WATER-LEVEL RECORD: The period of record for intermittent and daily water-level measurements is listed below.

State well number USGS station number Intermittent water-level Daily water-level
19S/2W-2C7 323313117033901 07/17/1995 to present no data
19S/2W-2C8 323313117033902 07/17/1995 to present no data
19S/2W-2C9 323313117033903 07/17/1995 to present no data
19S/2W-2C10 323313117033904 07/17/1995 to present no data
19S/2W-2C11 323313117033905 07/17/1995 to present no data

WATER-LEVEL MEASUREMENTS: Water levels are measured manually by means of a calibrated electric tape. Electric tape is used to avoid entangling the sensor and cable. Correction factors (comparison to a steel tape) are applied when necessary. Water-level corrections, for example to compensate for gage height, are calculated after each measurement and applied to the recorded values. Daily values are reported as the measurement at 1200 hours in feet below land surface.

MEASURING POINT: Top of steel box.

TOPOGRAPHIC MAP: USGS Imperial Beach, California, 7.5 minute series.

COOPERATION: The station is operated under cooperative agreement with the Tijuana County Water District.
