Trappe approves developer's Well 4R project with conditions and permit limits
The council approved a developer proposal to drill Well 4R to replace Well 4, conditioned on GMB review, town approval of the chemical storage building appearance, and a requirement that Well 4R operate for 30 days with production numbers reviewed before additional building permits are issued.
The full story
Attorney Ryan Showalter and James Cook presented a proposal to drill a new well (Well 4R) to replace the town's existing Well 4. The plan would add chemical storage to the outside of the Well 6 building and seal the existing Well 4 once 4R is operational; Showalter said Somerset Well is ready to proceed and estimated completion in late July or early August. He also confirmed the developer is not seeking DRRA credit for the Well 4R addition and said developer-led improvements on a Piney Point well could take six to eight months to bring that well online.
