Document Description
This well was drilled in the early 1900s and has reached a point of deterioration where the well casings walls are collapsing. This causes extra maintenance due to the sand getting into the pump and scourging the pump impellers. It also necessitates replacing the pump and bowels to re-gain production. To resolve the issue the District intends to re-drill the well at the same location (within a 100 feet of its present location). Replacing the well will save energy and maintenance costs. The customers of the District will benefit from lower energy and operations costs due to higher efficiency equipment replacements.
