abstract: Analysis-ready datasets detailing the Multilevel Monitoring System (MLMS)
  wells within the U.S. Geological Survey's (USGS) aquifer-monitoring network at the
  Idaho National Laboratory (INL) in Idaho, and the data collected within these wells.
  Supported by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), the USGS collected discrete measurements
  of hydraulic head at various depths from wells in the eastern Snake River Plain
  (ESRP) aquifer over several years. These measurements were derived from data on
  fluid pressure, fluid temperature, and atmospheric pressure. Each well was equipped
  with an MLMS, which included valved measurement ports, packer bladders, casing segments,
  and couplers. The MLMS facilitated monitoring at multiple hydraulically isolated
  depth intervals, reaching significant depths below the land surface. Additionally,
  groundwater samples were collected from these wells over multiple years and analyzed
  for various chemical and physical parameters.
