RE:'Well Test 2021.06.29
Dear Meme and Steven,
Please find below a summary of findings regarding the well constructed under Permit Number
136817-4.
1 The Wbll
1.1 Permitting and Construction
The original well was constructed under Permit Number 136817. The original permit was replaced
by permit 136817-A (application shown in Figure 1). Permit 136817-A has now been replaced by
Permit 323275, which is included in Figure 2, and allows use for ordinary household purposes inside
not more than three (3) single family dwellings. The well construction report for 136817-A can
be found in Figure 3. A map prepared by High County Engineering of existing conditions is also
attached at the end of this letter.
L.2 Pumping Test
On June 26,202I, a pumping test was performed on the well. An electronic datalogger was installed
in the pumped well to monitor water level. The well was pumped at approximately 17 gal/min for
four hours, followed by a short recovery monitoring period. Initial drawdown was rapid, followed
by complete cessation of drawdown after about 20 minutes. The lack of drawdown after extended
pumping indicates some form of recharge to the well. Further indication of aquifer recharge is
demonstrated by the tecovery plot. Normal (theoretical) recovery is a straight line that projects to
0 residtral drawdown as tftt approaches unity. Recharge is indicated by a projection to tf tt greater
than2; this well's recovery plot projectstotftt> 25, which is interpreted as a recharge rate that
was in excess of the 77 galfmin pumping rate. An overall plot of water depth is shown in Figure
4. Plots of drawdown and recovery are shown in Figures 5 and 6.

2 WATER QUALITY
2 Water Quality
\Mater quality samples were collected from the well on June 26, 2027, at some point during its
4-hour discharge period. There were no exceedances of State-regulated contaminantsl . The water
is appropriate and safe for drinking, stock watering, and irrigation, although the high iron and
manganese may lead to fixture staining.
A great set of resources for in-depth interpretation of the results can be found at the following

NOTES:
1. Items above in blue outline ane enfonceable on Public Waten Systems. These contaminants have been
shown to have advense health effects in concentrations above the stated Level.
2. Lead and Coppen Leve1 is fnom Regulation 11, Section 26. The stated level is the "Action Level,"
and is enfonced diffenently than MCL.
3, conrosivity is a cafculated panameten based in-part on pH and tempenatune. Because pH and
tempenatune wene not measuned at the time of collection, the calculated conrosivity in this sample set
is based on lab-measuned pH and temperature and thus may not be nepnesentative of actual- sounce
conditions.
lNot all State-regulated contaminants were tested.

3 R,ECOMMENDATIONS
3 Recommendations
This well appears to have a nearby source for recharge. \Mhile the quantity of the source seems
quite adequate, caution (e.g., disinfection) should be exercised in the use of this water for human
consumption due to the potential infl.uence that surface water may have on the well. Surface waters
tend to have much higher levels of biological contaminants compared to groundwaters.
Regarding the "abandoned well," u/e recommend filing for a monitoring well permit and using the
well to track the state of the aquifer. This type of observational well can help with early detection of
issues with the aquifer andf or the pumped well. Manual water level measurements would need to be
conducted at least twice per year, but more is recommended. Alternatively, permanent monitoring
equipment could be purchased for an estimated cost of $2,000-$3,000.
Very truly yours,
lu'lll*w
