The well, photographed here in early February 2008, pumps about 5000 gallons a day to 30 homes.

Floral Heights Well Groundwater Protection Committee

It was thought that the groundwater protection plan for Floral Heights might be prepared with the help of the Middle Lake Road Well Field Committee, but that committee did not feel they knew the Floral Heights area well enough. Two of the Floral Heights water customers having experience in hydrogeology were approached but did not want to sit on a committee. The CBRM watershed coordinator and the NS Environment watershed planner will review all the reports on the Floral Heights well and, working with the CBRM Planning Department, will prepare a draft document to present to the landowners in the area by October, 2010.
