Well drilling in Bryceville on timber land that floods in the wet season
A new Bryceville well is sited on the high point of a flat lot, built up so the ground falls away from the casing, and set 75 feet from a drain field that is usually already there.

What changes in Bryceville
The first decision on a Bryceville bore is where the wellhead stands. The acreage is flat, the water table comes up in the wet season, and timber clearing next door can raise it further. The rule requires the ground to fall away from the casing so surface water cannot run down it, and on this ground that means choosing the high point and building it up.
The second decision is the setback from the drain field, because every Bryceville parcel has a septic system and most of them are old and unrecorded. Call Flamingo locates the field before siting the well. The Nassau County health department permits the bore.
How the job runs
How a well is drilled here
Every new well is designed before it is drilled: purpose, demand, depth to the water that suits it, casing through the clay where the bore goes to the Floridan, and the setback from any septic system on the lot or next door. The permit is filed with the county office, or the City of Jacksonville in Duval, before the rig is booked. The bore is drilled, cased, grouted, developed until it runs clear and tested for yield. The pump, pitless adapter and pressure tank are sized to that yield and to the demand. The well is disinfected, the completion report is filed and a sample goes to a certified laboratory before anyone drinks from it.

Well Drilling questions from Bryceville
Can a well go in on a lot that floods?
On a built-up spot with the ground graded away from it, yes. Placement is the first decision.
Does the old septic system affect where the well goes?
Entirely. It is located first so the new bore keeps its 75 feet.
