I feel your pain because my pond is a groundwater pond, and it is totally dependant on the amount of ground water or level of ground water. I can add water with the well, but once the ground water level starts dropping I can't keep the pond full with the current well at 25 gpm.

It's hard to say. Maybe yes, maybe no. But, I'd almost bet that it wouldn't stay full all year long if the groundwater levels fluctuate and that allows the springs to run in reverse.
