Bothem <br />(8081 453-9589 / 20pb Alcott 61ree1 / Demor, Colorado ED211 -- <br />tlordon w. Faeeaa <br />July 2, 1982 <br />Mrs. Margaret Winter <br />Flatiron Sand and Gravel Company <br />Post Office Box 229 <br />Boulder, Colorado 80306 <br />Dear Margie: <br />This letter describes the results of en inveatigati.on made irl <br />response to a problem with a well owned by Bill KeCler. The <br />well is located at 3024 C Street, Greeley, Colorado: IC Ls 82 <br />feet deep and was drilled prior to 1952. The well is one of. <br />Chree located on the property and has been used for domestic <br />purposes. The well has not been registered with the State, <br />therefore, no permit records are available. In the fall of <br />1981, the water level in the well dropped below the ptunp <br />intake and the pump scatted pulling air. Since that time, the <br />well has yielded no water. The other two wells on the <br />property are about 300 feet to C}te north. Both of these wells <br />are shallower and both will yield water. <br />A problem has also deve77~~oped with a well owned by Edward Rody <br />of 2836 C Street. Mr. RBdy's well is located at his house and <br />has been used for domestic pugpores. This well was drilled in <br />1961, is 123 feet deep and yfields 1 gpm. Depth to water was 5 <br />feet: when the well was completed. The water level in Che well <br />started dropping in the fell of 1981. The well i s not dry, <br />btlC can only be pumped for 10 to 15 minutes before Che pumpp <br />starts to pull air. The pump musk then be shut off and a 1S <br />Co 20 minute wait is required to allow the water level Co <br />rise above the pump intake. To deCermine why Cliese wells are <br />drying up, we defined the local ground-water system and <br />looked for any land use changes, including Flatiron's pit, <br />which might have adversely effected the system. PertinenC <br />information wee obtained from the State Engineer's Office artd <br />from conversations with Che residenCs who live in the <br />affeoted area. Two aiCe visits to the area were made on May <br />13 end June 10, 1982. During the visits Ketler's wells were <br />inspected, all ditches and creeks in the area were visited <br />and recent land use changes were noted. <br />MydrOlOpy <br />Wa4r RIphL <br />ErtvlronmerNal Mulyala <br />Urban Dnlllape <br /> <br />P. <br />
