The water for Abenaki’s White Rock water system (in Bow, NH) is supplied by three bedrock wells. On Friday, May 19, we observed a marked decline in production capacity from the three wells. The wells were not producing enough water to satisfy the demand for water. The declining capacity of the wells is due to either deteriorating pump conditions, diminished water in the bedrock fractures that feed the wells, or both. Since last Friday, staff has been on site multiple times daily to closely optimize operations.
Aquarion staff (John Walsh, Carl McMorran and Taylor deOgburn) met with community members on Wednesday, June 7. Presentation slides (and annotated comments) can be viewed here.
