Well use: Not Used

"Abandoned" is the province's word for a well that is no longer in use. It does not by itself say the hole was filled in. Where plugging was recorded, it shows below and on the scanned record.

Water

Water level	2.4 m (8 ft) below ground How far down the water sits in the well with the pump off, measured from the surface. It can rise and fall with the seasons.
Water found at depth	2.7 m (9 ft) - Fresh Depths where the driller found water, and the kind of water the driller marked on the form. 'Untested' means the driller did not check what kind of water it was.
Is the well flowing	No If the groundwater level is above the ground surface, water can flow out on its own, without a pump.

The pump test on this record

A pump test is recorded for this well, with no test rate and no running time filed.

A controlled test the driller ran when the well was constructed. These results do not show today's flow.

Water level before pumping	2.4 m (8 ft) below ground How far down the water sat in the well before the test began. The same resting level shown above.
Water level at the end of the test	32.3 m (106 ft) below ground How far down the water stood when the test ended, after the pumping drew it down.
How long the pumping test ran	Not recorded How long the test lasted.

Construction

Drilling method	Cable Tool How the hole was made.
Completion	Not recorded How the bottom of the well was finished to let water in.
Surface seal	Not recorded Material around the outside of the casing, near the ground. It helps keep surface water out.
Abandonment plugging	0 - 3 ft (0 - 0.9 m) 3 - 21 ft (0.9 - 6.4 m) 21 - 106 ft (6.4 - 32.3 m) Material placed to close the well for good.
