5-17 Water

Can these water wells meet the proposed type of long term water supply demand without significant constraints on the ground water resources adjacent to the wells?

RESPONSE 5-17:

 

PUD Well #3A was originally permitted to provide water at the same capacity to drinking water users in the community.  Its capability to meet long term water supply demand without constraints on the adjacent groundwater resources was previously vetted by RIDEM and the RI Water Resources Board for its original approval for use.  Invenergy will work with PUD, RIDEM and the Rhode Island Water Resources Board (“RIWRB”) to conduct any assessments required to confirm that Well #3A can still meet the CREC water demand long term without impacting adjacent ground water resources.
