Book excerpt: Fresh ground water is available in Louisiana in rocks which range in age from Paleocene to Recent. The Wilcox group of Paleocene and Eocene age contains the oldest aquifers bearing fresh water in Louisiana. This group contains fresh water in northwestern Louisiana, where it crops out or is near the surface. Water-bearing sands in the Wilcox group generally are fine grained and lenticular which preclude high yields from wells. The maximum recorded yield of a well in these deposits is about 500 gpm (gallons per minute). Water from sands in the Wilcox general is soft but commonly contains excessive amounts of iron.
