4. A well has an hour meter attached to a water meter totalizer. After 3 hours of<br />

operation, the well produced 279,000 gallons. Water is the well yield in gpm?<br />

5. When a well was first constructed it was pumping 1,750 gpm. The efficiency of the well<br />

has dropped 35%. In addition, the drawdown has decreased by 15%. If the original<br />

drawdown was 42 ft what is the current specific capacity?<br />

6. A well pumped 538 AF over a one-year period averaging 10 hours of operation per day.<br />

For half the year the static water level was 25 ft bgs and half the year 42 ft bgs. The<br />

pumping level averaged 55 ft bgs for half the year and 68 ft bgs the other half. What<br />

was the average specific capacity for the year?<br />
