City moves to test wells on Athens State Hospital land
Ohio University land near the railroad bridge is being tested for new city wells. Fred H. Kiner Jr and Associates drilled three test wells on university property with two promising for production. If successful, the city may drill four more test and four production wells, potentially yielding 1.5 to 2.5 million gallons daily. Current production is about 2.5 million. Klaer reviews construction options and a site near the water treatment plant. Nuzum notes test drilling and cleaning costs exceed 6000 dollars.
