I dream to finish building my house, dig a deep well and not depend on someone's marasmatic ideas to improve the economic climate. I think that there are enough idiots in any country. In the poorest country of Europe) in Moldova, there are no minerals there, except for sand and limestone, there is some gas and oil on the border with Romania, but this is always a contentious issue. There is no industrial production of oil and gas. The highest tariffs for energy. This can bring to naught, any hobby, what to say about the fields. Watered, but, due to this, the prices for food grow to the sky. And, as for these flowers, I'm delighted! They are like lotuses and water lilies. Leaves are like ayhorniyu Eichhórnia crássipes - water plague. If water lilies are cut off and placed in a container with water, they will live, close in the evening and open in the morning. But, we do not do that. Too few of these plants are with us and they are under protection.

Yes, wells are a good idea, as long as not too many of your neighbours are digging wells too. In the USA, groundwater supply is being mostly drained as too many people are using it. There are entire Countries that have to import all their water supplies.
We are of the opinion that the more water from the well is taken away, the more water it will have. We have problems when the well sinks. I think that this is due to the geological and climatic features of a particular locality.
Here in Australia, we have the Great Artesian Basin. It is highly regulated and to use this water you must have a license. But this is not inexhaustible. In all wells, the water taken out must be eventually replaced with new water in order to continue the supply. Usually the water supply for wells is topped up by rainfall from nearby areas that collect rain ( recharge areas with sandy or more porous soils )which then seeps underground to the aquifer. Some aquifers are supplied with water from a long way away. But if there is no rain, aquifers cannot recharge, and then wells will eventually have less and less water until they run dry. If your well never runs out of water in drought and even when a lot of others are using the water in the same aquifer, then you are very lucky indeed ! In our Great Artesian Basin, if too much water was taken out of it, the ground would probably sink, as there is huge pressure which forces the water up to the surface when a bore is drilled into it. This is maybe the reason that sometimes wells sink in your country too. The return of "normal" rainfall patterns would ease the reliance on wells and bores to extract groundwater, but the "powers that be have a way of starving us of water in some areas and flooding with too much in other areas.. .. Geoengineering and HAARP.... Weaponizing the weather against us.
The pressure is great, that's for sure. We have a seismic zone. At a depth of about 100-12 meters in water there is a lot of hydrogen sulfide. This is a sign of geothermal processes. I was able to set fire to this water in one source.
This water can be drunk, even without defending. This water is lifted by deep-water pumps from deep wells. But, wells of private owners, usually, with a depth of 30-40 meters, no more than 5-10 meters. These layers of water are above the limestone slab. This is the rainwater and the water of the river basins. There are just huge lenses.
Wells, in the lowlands, are rarely used for drinking purposes, this water is used mainly for irrigation. The centralized water supply is fed by the Dniester and Prut rivers. These are powerful sources. But, sometimes there are problems with regard to the Dniester. Above moldova, against the current, the Dniester flows through the territory of Ukraine, if the floodgates overlap there, an alarm appears. Sometimes it happens)) Even worse, when these gateways open)) After they closed them. streams of water flood the settlements that are near the river. And it's bad, and then it's bad)) It's hard to please us))
Looks like we don't have to worry about your water supply then. Thanks for the feedback !
Thank you so much!
