Scott County Geologic Atlas
The Scott County Geologic Atlas was prepared by the Minnesota Geological Survey. County atlases present detailed geologic and hydrologic information in an interpretive as well as descriptive form. Maps and texts either summarize basic geologic and hydrologic conditions at a county scale, or interpret these conditions in terms of the impacts of possible land- and water-use decisions. The atlas is referenced when determining possible impacts to the groundwater from proposed land uses. The included Susceptibility to Groundwater Map is also used to determine replacement timelines for non-compliant septic systems.
