City of Sanger New Water Well

City of Sanger New Water Well

The proposed Project consists of construction and operation of a new municipal water well. As described previously, the City is evaluating two potential sites for the new well, although only one well will ultimately be constructed. Project construction and operation would be similar at either site. The proposed Project consists of construction and operation of a new municipal water well, which would occur in three phases. The first phase would be the construction of a test well to determine the potential capacity of the well and to test for water quality of the aquifer. If the capacity of the well and the water quality meet Health Department standards, then the second phase for Drilling and Developing the well would occur. This phase would drill the well hole and install blank and louvered casing to the necessary depths for the well. The third and last phase would be the Pump and Motor phase. This would include the installation of a drive motor, discharge line, sand separator, emergency generator, site lighting, electrical equipment and other site improvements. The new well will help provide water supply and pressure requirements for the area. For the purposes of this evaluation, it is assumed this new well will produce approximately 1,200 gallons per minute (gpm). Based upon the 5- year average maximum day demand (MDD) factor of 0.97 gpm per service connection, this well could serve approximately 1,200 single family residential homes.
