The U.S. Geological Survey developed \nthree-dimensional groundwater-flow models (MODFLOW-NWT code) of three study areas \nin the basin to improve understanding of groundwater flow and delineate areas contributing \nrecharge to 16 production wells as part of an effort to protect the source of water to these \nwells. The modeled areas were the Cortland study area in Cortland County (CCSA), Greene \nstudy area (GSA), and the Cincinnatus study area (CSA). Production wells in CCSA tap \nunconfined aquifers, whereas the production wells in GSA and CSA are screened in confined \naquifers. The CCSA, which has an extensive calibration dataset, was calibrated by nonlinear \nregression and included a prediction uncertainty analysis. The GSA and CSA were manually \ncalibrated because of the sparse model design and calibration information. The groundwater-flow \nmodels along with particle tracking (MODPATH code) were used to simulate water levels, \nbase flows, water budgets, and flow paths.
