As an industry, we have more tools and knowledge available to us than ever before. However, all too often, we fall back onto old ways because they are comfortable and familiar. Lessons learned often go unheeded or are required to be learned again. Information is often lost in dusty old binders that could be very beneficial to those developing new resources. The session will discuss utilization of test hole and water quality data, mining older well histories, and using state resources to develop wells that are less susceptible to fouling, more efficient, and have a longer operational lifespan. Discussion will also focus on design considerations for corrosion, regular monitoring, and ease of treatment.
