Ensuring Water Supply Reliability: PPHCSD's New Well Project
In 2023, District staff installed a new well and 5,280 feet of water pipeline to connect it to the water distribution system.
Hold onto your water bottles! In 2023, our District rolled up its sleeves and did something cool – we installed a brand-spanking new well.
And guess what? We're about to spill all the watery details! Scroll down with us as we embark on an epic aqua adventure. Discover the secrets behind why we picked the spot we did for our well. Plus, get ready to be enchanted by the magic that goes into drilling a well. It's not just dirt and pipes; there's a sprinkle of aqua-wizardry involved.
Let's make a splash and dive into the behind-the-scenes of our quest for a water future that is sustainable and reliable.

But First, a Pipeline
If you're going to drill a well, it's important to make sure all of that water can get into your water distribution system. While District staff picked a great location to drill a well, it wasn't exactly close to the rest of the water system. But since we can't pick where the water is under the ground, we have to extend the system to where the water is. Sort of like leading a horse to water. In this case, District staff had to install about 5,280 linear feet of pipe to the new location. That's a mile of pipe!
