What is the process and cost of a well in Scaly Mountain and Highlands, NC?
Until on-site drilling occurs, cost can not be predicted. The average drilling cost is $12 per foot and then there is the cost of the pump and other expenses such as electricity. There is no average depth and it may be 900 feet or more. The flow may very from nothing to as much as 80 + gallons per minute. A more powerful pump is required with deep wells, which of course adds to the cost. In addition, a reservoir may be indicated.
