About the cover: Contoocook Artesian Well Co. drills a
replacement well on September 8, 2015 in Andover,
New Hampshire, for an old farmhouse with a contaminated
(total coliform and E. coli bacteria) dug well about 1000
feet from the house. The depth to bedrock was 6 feet,
there are 40 feet of casing and grout, and the well yields
100 gpm. Photo courtesy Contoocook Artesian Well in
