The following factors should be carefully studied for ground water development in hard rock areas: 1. In the conditions existing in hard rock areas shallow small diameter wells can at best yield 4 GPM or 250 GPH. The larger diameter wells can store up to 20,000 to 30,000 gallons in a day. A bore well […]
