  • Geological Input
    • There will be a Geologist Coordination Meeting [(4) Geologists] on Tuesday, 11-28-23.
      • The Working Group should expect a report at a future (perhaps at the 12-6-23) meeting.
      • A dewatering well drilling, at the beach, will begin on Monday, 11-27-23.
        • The well will be 150’ deep and will take about a week to drill it out to the 14” size. The following week they will install a 8” well casing, pump and drain pipe during the following week. The new well is expected to be operational by the 8th of December. They are anticipating 100GPM from this well. That will enable them to take the first well pump offline and repair the damaged well casing. They are hoping to be pumping about 250GPM out of the pumps at the beach in about 6 weeks, they have been getting between 54 and 72GPM in 2023, so this would be a significant improvement in water extraction.
