Do you have any comments?

Well 7 has been out of service due to a screen issue since 2017 - the screen has been on order since November 2019 and the well will be serviced as soon as it comes in.

Well 11 was given Final Approval on February 10, 2020. The header connecting this well to the Raw Water Piping HAS NOT BEEN APPROVED as of this date (3-24-2020), and so this Well remains unused, pending said approval. I have not added this well to our system in this report as it was not a part of the system in the reporting year 2019.

How this data was compiled:

Table 2-A - Used our eMOR report for base data, calculated days pumped for column 1, used total gallons for month from eMOR divided by days pumped to get average per day for column 2, and used daily maximum on eMOR for max flow day in column 3.

Table 2-B - All data extrapolated from Annual Well Totals in our WIMS System.

Table 3-A - Used data pulled directly from each monthly eDMR for all data in table.

Table 3-B - Added monthly averages for year as reported in Table 3-A and divided by 12 to get yearly Average Daily Discharge, Added together the monthly totals discharged in Table 3-A for total days discharged.
