Many new homes and some older existing homes in HPP have put in water wells within the last few years. To my knowledge, Diamond Drilling does most of well drilling. Near the coast they are shallow at 30'-40' and Mr. Diamond who lives on 32nd has a 400' deep well.
We were granted a well permit by the state. It took 6 months, so start early if you are interested. We will be drilling our well within the next three months sometime. It is true that the closer to the coast you drill the more likely you will get some salt. [xx(] However, a reverse osmosis system reduces the salt for drinking.
When we researched the cost of food grade plastic enclosed catchment tanks vs well cost, the well was cheaper and included the pump and UV system.
