A field test is conducted in a confined aquifer by pumping a constant discharge of 14.9 m3/hr from 20-cm-diameter well. After an approximate steady state is reached, a drawdown of 0.98 m is measured in the pumped well. Also measured are drawdowns of 0.73 m, 0.65 m, 0.60 m, and0.57 m, respectively, at 8.0 m, 30.0 m, 80.0 m, and 132 m from the pumped well. Determine the transmissivity of this aquifer. Also, determine how far away from the well you must be before the drawdown becomes less than 0.45 m.
