| Details: | On November 07, 2019: I instructed Mr. Sevey to go ahead and initiate plan review process. I provided contact information for Jay MacPherson - Region 2 Technical Services Unit coordinator. I also emailed a copy of the Plan Review Instructions. On November 06, 2019: Ms. Sevey contracted with a well company to clean out the well, verify casing depth and formation, brush casing and perform an aquifer stress test (flow tes). A copy of the well log was emailed to me. Paper copy and electronic copy filed. On October 25, 2019: - In order to comply with the Groundwater Rule and address the fecal contamination detected at the source (SRC AA), Mr. Sevey informs me that they have decided to switch to the well located in the pump house. - According to the information provided by Mr. Sevey, the well in the pump house was abandoned approximately 30 to 40 years ago because it could not keep up with the demand. At that time, the water district was connected to Eighty Acres Water and there were approximately 14 to 16 houses on the system. The demand was quite high since every household had children so a different source was developed utilizing ground water and a ground filtration system. Eighty Acres was eventually disconnected from Rolling Acres' system. Since then, other properties have developed their own individual water systems and now Rolling Acres water system is serving only six houses. There is a holding tank that can hold 17,000 gallons and they consume approximately 5,500 gallons every 36 hours. Mr. Sevey conducted a flow test of the well in the pump house today and running the pump at 10 gallons a minute, it ran for over 3 hours and did not run out of water. This would represent a total of 1,800 gallons pulled from the well. - Given the water system's current financial limitations, I advised Mr. Sever to contact RCAC Rural Development Specialist - Mr. Jason Carman (jcarman@rcac.org) to discuss any financial help available for their water system. |
