Water Wells
The City of Edmond operates and maintains 53 water wells that are part of the Garber-Wellington water well field. Most of these wells are located west of I-35.
The wells produce approximately 10 million gallons per day (MGD). During the winter off-peak water usage season, the wells produce much of the water used by Edmond residents.
- Three new wells, which were developed and permitted in 2005, are expected to be operational by the end of 2006.
- Four water wells located east of I-35 are underway and
expected to be in use by early 2008.
- The estimated cost to build these water wells and pipelines is $2 million.
- The wells should produce over one million gallons of water per day.
- More water wells are planned for the future as Edmond acquires additional ground water leases.
