Bel Air Well Bust Slows as 50 GPM Is All That Remains
The Bel Air water project in Austin is labeled a bust after tests at 1,500 feet found water but not suitable for drinking. Superintendent Harold J. Lamon says 50 gallons per minute is the limit, far from the hoped 700, with talks planned after Fred M. McCarthy visits. Professor George Thiel still believes deeper drilling may yield usable water. Progress since July 1954 has been hampered by broken bits and gear, with Brownsdale testing pending after reaching 570 feet.
