Got a Well?

[GameHauler]

Wondering if anyone in the Payson area has a good well.

If you live up this way you probable have heard how bad

the water situation is in Mesa Del thanks to Brooks utility

I have not been able to water my trees all summer and lost

one tree already and have two more looking real bad.

I will not have any fruit this year also because of it

I have a water trailer and was hoping I could get a load so

I don't loss any more trees.

I am hoping that maybe a load or two will hold them over

until we get some good precipitation.

 

Thanks,

wasnt blue ridge suppose to be relief for the town of payson... I believe that was put there to service the trucks back in the day?

It was I believe and does by supplying ground water via the East Verde

but the system does not keep up with all the pumping going on for the increased population.

Everything seems to be falling into place for a pipeline from blueridge to Payson

but that will take years for it to all be put in.

The pipeline will run less than 100yds from my house but our small community (apx 200 homes I think) will have to build the facility to handle the water so we can utilize it. $$$$$$$$

Hardcastle, the owner of Brooks utility is a Tight A$$ piece of cow dung not willing to fill his obligation to not only Mesa Del but many Communities.

They are trucking water out of Gieslea and other ares to fill our tanks and doing a very POOR job of it also

We have completely ran out of water a couple time this year, BS

I have had to go to my shop in town and fill water jugs to bring back to carry up on the roof to fill the swamp coolers just to not cook in near 100* temps.

Last week they turned OFF water to several of the Community who were high water users and

I heard on the local radio talk show they will not even reply to their phone calls.

Hardcastle is no more than a piece of crap

Times are tough and people wanted to plant a garden to help with food but if you get caught watering outside plants they may shut you off after a first warning.

The largest user of water here owns the general store and they were reading his meter every day.

He told them to stick it and could only by law come on his property once a month to read his meter Little did they know he has a Law background and loves to use it

 

Sorry for ranting but things are BAD

Water is one of the reasons I left the Payson area 6 years ago. I sure hope someone figures out how to solve the water problem soon. I feel for you and all my friends and loved ones there.

There is nothing in the works to solve the water issue in Mesa Del..... .... Looks like they need to start moving in the direction that Pine did.... looks like they are close to gettting control of that water company... if you can believe what you read....

You are right Gino but there was another meeting this weekend.

People are pretty feed up and I heard they are talking to the folks

up there on how to proceed.

Brooks just needs to pack there bags and get out of here

I think Hardcrap is starting to get the Idea maybe

My neighbor said they pulled all the pipe from the #2 well.

maybe the are going to go deeper??

[Guest 300ultramag.]

yikes that scary counting on one rig... I hope they dont drop it in the well!

[ArcheryHunter]

WOW, thats tough man. I'll pray for you and the water situation. Ive never heard of such a thing.

[GameHauler]

Nobody has a good well to help me out

We have a chance of rain this week.

3 days of a nice lite rain sure would be nice.

Pray for us and the critters up here,

they are having a tough time also.

If you are up north please be careful with fires

and if you see some idiot please inform them of the dangers.

I believe there are 14 fires going on up in the Rim Country
