Ewing trustees approve treatment for well

Ewing village trustees learned Monday evening that the 66 well is encrusted and may require chemical treatment.

Larry Steele, an engineer representing Miller & Associates, of Kearney, said a video of well 66, located in the old fire hall, shows it is encrusted.

“It looks like this well has had some problems in the past,” Steele said.

The well was chemically treated in 2006 and 2012.

“Typically what we’re trying to do is open up the screen,” Steele said.

A similar process was used on the 58 well, according to Steele, and a liner was installed.

“The 66 well is only 12 inches in diameter.”
