The annual pumpage data <br />summarized in Table 3, combined with a review of the daily operating records, <br />indicates that Well No. 3 is the most highly utilized of the four wells while Well <br />No.4 is the least utilized. <br /> <br /> TABLE 3 <br /> WELL PRODUCTION <br /> Well No.1 Well No.2 Well No.3 Well No.4 Total <br />Year mil gal mil gal mil gal mil gal (mil gal) <br /> percent percent percent percent <br />1996 26.1 18 62.9 42 57.4 39 1.9 1 148.3 <br />1997 22.4 12 50.4 28 94.3 53 12.5 7 179.6 <br />1998 32.9 17 52.3 27 92.9 49 13.5 7 191.6 <br />1999 10.3 9 55.3 48 46.9 40 3.4 3 115.9 <br />2000 62.6 35 42.9 24 68.8 38 6.5 3 180.8 <br />2001 <br /> <br />Table 4 provides a summary of annual Fry-Ark water purchases and city well <br />production for the past five years.
