There is also some concern that increased pumping in the FIG aquifer could impact private wells <br />that pump from this aquifer. Again, the residual drawdown levels in the FIG average 5- to 1 O-feet <br />during the peak summer pumping period (Appendix F) and recover fully during the Fall, Winter <br />and Spring. Therefore, the radius of influence of the wells will be very small meaning there could <br />be no impacts to private wells developed in the same unit. <br /> <br />Before additional wells are constructed, additional appropriations will be applied for through the <br />DNR. This will most likely require both short- and long-term testing and monitoring to verify the <br />above findings. Thrpugh this process, the City can insure that there continue to be no impacts on <br />groundwater and surface resources due to their appropriations from the FIG. <br /> <br />242 <br /> <br /> <br />
