It's not in the init, which is why you can't find it. This is technically a modding question.

Step 1: Back up all your RAW files.
Step 2: In the RAW files for stones and minerals (I think they're "inorganic_stone" and similar, but can't verify now) change [AQUIFER] to <AQUIFER> or !AQUIFER! or similar. Do this for ALL occurrences in ALL files.
Step 3: Save the files as plain text.
Step 4: Load DF and generate a new world,
Step 5: Play new world.

In case you don't want to use a .txt editor like notepad++ but just standard windows stuff: there are 19 [AQUIFERS] in 3 files.
