When I was looking for property in HPP, the information I got from my realtor and others was that wells are a viable option on Kaloli Point because there is a good likelihood of hitting water, but not the rest of HPP. But there is nothing "pure" about the water with the cesspools in the area.
Artesian well water is amazing, but you won't get that here. We had an artesian well in the desert foothills (when I was in high school), and it was a thousand feet deep. Fantastic pure water, but very hard, lots of mineral content.
I wonder that there aren't more wells here. Anyone know the reason why catchment is the popular method?
To Seeb -- yep, I mentioned the lava tubes. Why drill through rock when Madame Pele has left natural subterranean vaults?
