That's BS in this case. We have to use a well because no county water is available in the rural area where I live. The well has never gone dry on us except the year we landscaped the house with new shrubbery and had the water the new plants on a regular basis and bingo it went dry that year due to overuse.

You are right for the rural area where you live. I guess city water is not available? I guess the WHOLE COUNTRY must be in crisis whenever a well goes dry. . .

Rural water has created a dependency on water for rural people and in many cases, the water costs considerably more that comparable urban water rates. What happens when urban areas start reducing water access to rural residents to satisfy the urban need? The water crisis is very real in America as well and I predict water needs will outstrip the demand for oil and gas.

As for wells, I heard there will be a new government regulation next year on new deep wells FORCING a well owner to provide water to neighbors as well as other intrusions into the property rights of the well owner.
Be advised that the government deems underground water as government property and not your property, even though you have assumed the expense of drilling and maintaining the well.

And if with many other wells drilled in your area, the year you ran out of water tells you that there is very little left to share in your water table.
