Brandy/Henry/Mike,

In the USA is it really that easy to just 'drill' a well? Althought there is a cost element to doing it, do you not have to 'apply' to abstract the water?

Here in England, water is a commodity which is licenced to abstract it. All new houses and those built up to 10-years or so ago, are also metered, therefore every water change in a pond has a cost elelment to it.

For England, we've had a great Summer. Unfortunatly now, groungwater and raw water reservoirs are low and there has been concern in the South about droughts for next year. Now we've had a lot of rain recenlty, this concern has seemingly gone away, but unless it continues to rain a lot, it may well happen.
