the Monsanto cone of depression. Gradients averaged<br />

about 10 feet per mile with<strong>in</strong> the Alton, Granite City,<br />

National City, and Wood River cones of depression.<br />

Along Canteen Creek and Cahokia Canal east of<br />

Horseshoe Lake, Long Lake, and Grand Marais <strong>St</strong>ate<br />

Park Lake, the piezometric surface was higher than the<br />

surface-<strong>water</strong> elevation and ground <strong>water</strong> was discharged<br />

<strong>in</strong>to these streams and lakes. Below the confluence of<br />

Canteen Creek and Cahokia Canal south of Horseshoe<br />

Lake the piezometric surface was lower than surface<strong>water</strong><br />

elevations of Cahokia Canal at places where <strong>water</strong><br />

levels have decl<strong>in</strong>ed as the result of heavy pump<strong>in</strong>g.<br />

Surface <strong>water</strong> <strong>in</strong> the Cahokia Diversion Channel south of<br />

the Wood River is kept above the piezometric surface at<br />

an elevation of 413 feet by a low <strong>water</strong> dam near the<br />

outlet of the channel. Surface-<strong>water</strong> levels are also controlled<br />

<strong>in</strong> Cha<strong>in</strong> of Rocks Canal by Lock No. 27 near<br />

Granite City and were higher than the piezometric surface<br />

adjacent to the canal. The piezometric surface <strong>in</strong><br />

the vic<strong>in</strong>ity of Wood River near Alton and Prairie Du<br />

Pont Creek south of Monsanto was slightly higher than<br />

the surface-<strong>water</strong> elevations of the streams. At the<br />
