Abstract

Documents related to the Water Well Monitoring Program for Geothermal Development Monitoring, Kilauea Lower East Rift Zone, Kapoho Shaft Well Right-of-Entry. Part of this program will be to install low capacity sampling pumps in five wells in the lower Puna area. Accordingly, we would appreciate your approval to accP.ss and install a pump in the Kapoho Shaft well. We wish to monitor the well approximately once every two weeks for an indefinite period of time. We understand that the Department of Water Supply plan to abandon this well. The pump to be installed is a Model ST1101P which was purchased from QED Groundwater Specialists, 6095 Jackson Road, P.O. Box 3726, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48106, (800) 624-2026 and is of stainless steel construction. All materials which will be installed in the well will meet EPA drinking water standards. Upon completion of our work, the pump and all materials will be removed and the site restored as near as practicable to its original condition.
