Roswell Twin Lakes Well Brings Spring Water Flow Near Roswell
A four inch well on Twin Lakes near Roswell flowed at about 360 gallons per minute after reaching 180 feet. Locals funding a dam at the lake’s south end aim to hold ten to twelve feet of water over more than a hundred acres. Roswell residents donated time and a drilling machine to the project, hoping to finance additional flowing wells along the lake to raise the water level and attract wildlife this spring.
