In confined aquifers , the cone of depression is a reduction in the pressure head surrounding the pumped well. When a well is pumped, the water level in the well is lowered. By lowering this water level, a gradient occurs between the water in the surrounding aquifer and the water in the well. Because water flows from high to low water levels or ...
Aquifer test (or a pumping test) is a field experiment in which a well is pumped at a controlled rate and the aquifer's response (drawdown) is measured in one or more observation wells. [5] Cone of depression is a conically-shaped depression that is produced in a water table as a result of pumping water from a well at a given rate. [4]

In the early years Baden's water supply was obtained from wells and cisterns; the first pumping station was installed about 1830. The second pumping station was installed at Bissell's Point in 1880. In 1887 construction of a new low service pumping station at Chain of Rocks was authorized. This plant went into service in 1895.
