Box 1115 <br />LaPorte, Texas 77571 <br />Attention: Jerry Hodge <br />Reference: Fairmont Park Water Well <br />Dear Jerry: <br />5402 Lawndale <br />P.O. Box 9469 <br />Houston, Texas 77001 <br />713/928-5741 <br />• August 26, 1980 <br />After talking with Chacko today, we have concluded that the sand <br />problems you are encountering are coming from the well nearest <br />the swimming pool, which we have listed as well #2. <br />Chacko tells me that this was the only well running when the sand <br />problems were encountered and that since the alternate well has <br />been run and the tank has been cleaned out, that your problem has <br />disappeared. These two facts seem to conclude that the sand is <br />coming from well #2. We did notice large amounts of sand being <br />produced on start up at the time we tested the wells last month. <br />I recommend that the well pump be removed from the well and an <br />attempt made to settle the gravel pack in the well to lessen or <br />eliminate the sand production. While the pump bowl is out of the <br />well, I also recommend that it be brought to our yard for a <br />thorough inspection to check for possible sand abrasion and other <br />abnormal wear. After we have completed the well gravel work, the <br />pump shall be reinstalled and put in service. A test shall be <br />made to determine the success of the well work over. <br />The following is an estimation of the time needed for the <br />recommended work with corresponding rate charges. Please note <br />that the time estimated for pulling and inspecting the pump as <br />well as reinstallation should be relatively close to actual time <br />spent. However, the time for well gravel settling is dependent <br />solely on the well and any estimation is purely that. <br />Set up, remove pump and column pipe - <br />CB 4 - 21 hrs. @$98.00 <br />Hauling bowl to yard - CB11- <br />Breakdown and inspection of bowl - <br />CB 12 - 4 hrs. @$25.00 plus 4 hrs @$18.00 <br />Treat, agitate and work over gravel pack - <br />36 hrs,@$98.00 <br />Equipment needed for work over <br />Haul bowl to job site <br />Reinstallation of bowl and column - <br />21 hrs. @$98.00 <br />$ 2,058.00 <br />200.00 <br />172.00 <br />3,528.00 <br />2,000.00 <br />200.00 <br />2,058.00 <br />Pg. 2M <br />
