Pozos de monitoreo del condado de Bell
The District monitors the static water level of numerous wells throughout Bell County quarterly in order to closely monitor the aquifer levels as part of our statutory responsibility.
A static water level (often simply called “the water level”) is the distance from ground level down to the water in the well. The meaning of “static” is the normal “resting” level of water — i.e. when the pump is not actively pumping and hasn’t pumped recently. If you have pumped, the water level changes as the well fills back up to the static level. The speed at which your well refills – e.g. three gallons per minute – is called your “Recovery Rate”.
All data are provisional and subject to revision. The Texas Water Development Board (TWDB) specifically disclaims any and all liability for any claims or damages that may result from providing these data. For additional information, including water level and water quality data, search the TWDB Groundwater Database (GWDB).
