However, city officials said last week such fears are unwarranted and uninformed. Philip Palmer, city engineer, and Joe Petty, local drilling contractor, told Blanding City Council last week the local water table is higher than normal despite the severe drought. In fact, Mark Page, state water engineer, has informed the city its water table is higher now than ever before, Palmer added. According to Councilman Keele Johnson, many residents feel the citys attempts to drill for water is disturbing their water table and several citizens have expressed anger because of the drilling. Another concern is that the city has drilled two wells below the water treatment plant, contrary to original plans to drill only above the plant. Councilman Jim Slavens told Johnson the decision to drill a well at the citys south park on Main Street and at the Albert R. Lyman Middle School were made out of necessity and all other drilling will be done above the plant as planned. I think the people of Blanding need to know the facts about the water table because its causing some bad feelings and there has been some vandalism already. Ive heard some people have hired a lawyer, Slavens said. Police Chief Tom Austin said there havent been any reports of major damage to any of the rigs, but if necessary his office will place security at the drill sites. In addition to the wells at the South Park and middle school, the city has drilled a third well at Third Reservoir. The combined output from the three wells is reported to be approximately 70 gallons per minute, Palmer said.
