Palani Well No. 1
This project is a privately developed potable deep well pump station and 1.0 million gallon tank located in Kailua-Kona, Big Island. Upon completion, the facility was dedicated to the Hawaii County Department of Water Supply and become an integral component of the Hawaii County Department of Water Supply’s North Kona Water System. The project began with an exploratory deep well which proved to be of ample quantity and good safe drinking water quality. The project then progressed to outfitting the well with a deep (1,800 feet) submersible pump of 1,100 gpm capacity.
Project involved the negotiating of water credits, study of an existing water system, analysis of an existing water source, storage, transmission and distribution, hydrological study to determine possible water sources, drilling and testing of exploratory well, drilling, testing and development of a production well and permitting.
