Several studies characterize the confining unit above the Cape Fear Formation as a tight marine shale (Aucott and others, 1987; Aucott, 1988; Miller, 1990), and the shale interval is easy to recognize in published cross sections (Colquhoun and others, 1983; Aucott and others, 1987). Aucott (1988) provided a map showing the distribution leakage coefficient of the Cape Fear confining unit. He defined the leakage coefficient as the vertical hydraulic conductivity (~2 ยด 10 <\/SPAN><\/SPAN>-7<\/SPAN><\/SPAN> ft/day) divided by the confining unit thickness (~50 ft). The map in the GIS is from Aucott (1988; his fig. 31). <\/SPAN><\/SPAN><\/P> <\/P><\/DIV><\/DIV><\/DIV>",
