2、ar of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope*1.1 This test method covers an analytical procedure fordetermining the transmissivity,storage coefficient,specificyield,
3、and horizontal-to-vertical hydraulic conductivity ratio ofan unconfined aquifer.It is used to analyze the drawdown ofwater levels in piezometers and partially or fully penetratingobservation wells during pumping from a control well at aconstant rate.1.2 The analytical procedure given in this test me
4、thod isused in conjunction with Guide D4043 and Test MethodD4050.1.3 The valid use of the Neuman method is limited todetermination of transmissivities for aquifers in hydrogeologicsettings with reasonable correspondence to the assumptions ofthe theory.1.4 The values stated in SI units are to be rega
5、rded asstandard.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.
