Water

Water level5.8 m (19 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
20.1 m (66 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 flowingNo
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
The driller pumped this well at 1 GPM (4.5 LPM) for 1 hour 20 minutes.
A controlled test the driller ran when the well was constructed. These results do not show today's flow.
Water level before pumping5.8 m (19 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 test12.5 m (41 ft) below ground
How far down the water stood when the test ended, after the pumping drew it down.
How long the pumping test ran1 hour 20 minutes
How long the test lasted.

Construction

Drilling methodCable Tool
How the hole was made.
CompletionOpen Hole
How the bottom of the well was finished to let water in.
Surface seal15 - 21 ft (4.6 - 6.4 m)
Material around the outside of the casing, near the ground. It helps keep surface water out.

Casing is the pipe lining the hole. It keeps the hole open and keeps loose ground and surface water out.
