Title

Test Well Drilling Project

Description

The test well project will involve the drilling of a hole to a depth of approximately 500-ft using a single drill rig with attached casing hammer and necessary tooling. The approximate footprint of this equipment is 30-ft by 50-fy. The test will advance an 8-5/8" diameter steel casing as it drills and will collect water quality samples at each water bearing formation encountered as the drilling progresses. Approximately 8 cy of earth material or drill cuttings will be removed during the test well project and this material will be discharged to above ground tanks that can be removed and disposed of at the completion of the project. As water bearing formations are encountered and water quality samples collected, the pumped water will be discharged to above ground tanks. It is anticipated that there would be approximately twelve water quality samples each pumped for 10 minutes at approximately 50 gpm to 80 gpm. At the completion of the test hole, it will be filled with cement from the bottom to 6-ft below ground surface and the ground surface restored to original conditions.
