7. Augusta Kent county Ionia county 1 Ionia county 2 Kalamazoo county Branch county Washtenaw County City of Clare The orientation of WHPAs based on field data matches well with the direction of head gradient estimated from the Wellogic data Additional Evidence showing the wellogic SWLs are very valuable
