OVERPUMPAGE OF GROUND WATER PROVIDES PROBLEM Overpumpage of ground water threatens permanent damago to the water-yielding formations underlying the Chicago region, according to a report published this week by the Illinois State Water Survey, scientific research division of the Department of Registration and« Education. Written by water survey engineers. the report states that the greatest danger from overpumping in the Chicago region lies in the potential dewatering of the water-bearing rock formations. When all water they contain is withdrawn, the formations become compacted and unable to hold or yield the generous quantities of water that the region has been noted for in \ears past. Pumpage last year in this area increased 9.7 million gallons per day, or from 78.3 to 88 million gallons per day. TJie area comprises more than half the state's population and incl'idqs the counties of Cook, DuPage, McHenry, DeKalb, Lake, Kane, Kendall and parts of Grundy and Will. Sunnyside Estates !
