Council asks for 30 days of production data before acting on Well 4R
Summary
Council members said they wanted a full 30 days of production numbers before deciding how much new capacity to credit from Rauch's Well 4R, which would replace Well 4 but does not solve storage or satisfy a DRRA requirement, according to the transcript.
At the May 7 workshop the Trappe council discussed how to handle additional production if Rauch's proposed Well 4R is installed. Councilors said they would review one month (30 days) of production numbers after Well 4R is online before deciding on how much extra capacity the town could rely on.
The transcript records that the Rauch proposal "does not address the storage capacity issue and still requires Lakeside to build a water tower" and that the proposal "does not satisfy one of their well requirements in the DRRA." The workshop closed without a formal decision on crediting capacity; no staff assignment or timeline beyond the 30-day data request is recorded in the transcript.
