"Loud" Maintenance at Well #5
Administration7/13/2011
Description
The City of Northfield is having maintenance done on the #5 well at 1701 Archibald Street this week. The maintenance requires a loud air pressurizing of the well reservoir and an air lifting process to remove the sand that has fallen to the bottom of the well. This loud sand removal system will be in affect until at least the 12th of July excluding the 4th of July weekend. The well contractor has removed about 40 yards of sand so far from the bottom of the well. The Water Division will keep the public informed of the progress of the sand removal at this well.
