So far, so good in Delaware County, OH, Theo. Even during the late summer drought, the water output into the pond remained constant. The driller said with the modest amount I'm pumping, I'm not risking anybody else's well nearby. I wouldn't want to do that, so I did ask that question. Everybody contiguous to me (as well as myself) is on Delco water for their household use; only the houses in an older neighborhood beside me use wells for their homes.
