Regarding redrilling the borewell in Bangalore, Karnataka - Should rainwater harvesting be done before redrilling

Hi all,

 

1.I have digged a bore well of 180 feet.In the beginning we had a hand pump for 8 months,we used to get water.

2.After 8 months i fitted jet pump for the borewell.During this time while inserting the Pump there was some problem so forcibly they did it,after that we used to get silt.

3.Now we have not used it for more than 7 years and now we are facing shortage of water and i want to redrill,can i redrill the borewell again.And now even the Jet pump is not working.And if at all redrilling is possible till how many feet i have drill it.

4.Also i am planning to do Rain water harvesting around the borewell.So is it best to do harvesting first and then redrilling the borewell.

 

Please advice

 

Thanks & Regards,

Krishna Kumar.B.M
