Summary
This report lists all holes which have been drilled at the Nevada Test Site for which stratigraphic contacts have been measured or estimated, and entered into the LLNL Containment Program Test Effects and Geological Data Bank. No post shot holes and not many instrument holes are listed, because there is not much geologic information for them. Water wells and hydrologic test holes usually do have data, and all are listed. A list of the parameters is included. The stratigraphic contacts for holes drilled since BANEBERRY are probably correct to 1 or 2 m, subject to debate among individual geologists. The holes drilled before BANEBERRY (before much sidewall sampling and geophysical logging) are dependent on the geologist's ability to pick contacts from studying cuttings samples, which may have been contaminated or dog housed (a sample from one horizon put into multiple boxes).
