This report, one of a series on the ground-water resources of the State of Washington, contains well records and other data collected during the course of an investigation in the Sammamish Lake area immediately east of Seattle, King County, Washington. Most of these investigations are conducted in cooperation with the State of Washington, Department of Conservation and Development, Division of Water Resources. However, a few investigations, including the one in the Sammamish Lake area, have been made entirely with Federal funds. A similar investigation is now being made in the area to the west, including the city of Seattle and metropolitan areas to the north and south. It is planned that results of teh two investigations will be combined into a single comprehencive report. In order that the data collected can be made available sooner, this report as been prepared with only a brief explanatory and descriptive text.
