In 2011, the Town of North Attleborough, MA began its second attempt to replace one of its failing groundwater supplies. Plainville Well No. 2 was constructed in 1978 with an original capacity of approximately 700 gallons per minute (gpm), and served as one of the Town's major production wells. Since the early 2000's, the well has been exhibiting a continuous loss of capacity to such a degree that the Town could only rely on this well to supply approximately 250-300 gpm due to excessive drawdown. Given the characteristics of the existing caisson well, standard well rehabilitation techniques were not effective in restoring its capacity. In 2007, the North Attleborough Department of Public Works (NADPW) began an exploratory test well program to locate and construct a new satellite replacement well as close as possible to the existing well and pump house. A satellite well was located and installed, however, it fell short of its anticipated yield. In 2011, a second exploratory test well program was completed employing a different approach for locating a new satellite well which proved to be successful. A new 675 gpm replacement well with a 36-inch Baker/Monitor pitless adapter has since been permitted, designed and constructed.
The 1LR-12 contains inert ceramic powder embedded in a modified, molded carbon block with polypropylene core. Reduces amount of soluble lead in drinking water to levels well below the EPA's suggested action level of 10ppb. The 1LR-12 does not allow lead to redissolve or leach out.
