Water and Carrizo Aquifer Irrigation Well:
The residence utilizes a storage tank that is filled from the irrigation well when it is in operation.  The irrigation water well is 3,000 feet deep and has a casing size of 16" down to 2,206 feet and then 12" casing to the bottom of the well at 3,000 feet.   The irrigation well is equipped with a 375 H.P. gear head and is currently utilizing a borrowed diesel  engine to power the water well.  The owners engine is in need of a repair.  The well could be converted to 3 phase electric power with Karnes Electric Company and lower the operational cost considerably.  The cost of the conversion to electricity is estimated to be approximately $17,000.00 as per a bid from Karnes Electric Co-op in April of 2006 and the cost of installing an electric motor and electric panel.    The irrigation well delivers water to the pivots via 8" underground PVC/100# mainline pipe and the water well will pump enough volume and pressure to operate all pivots at the same time.  There is a smaller stock type well near the north west corner of the ranch that supplies water to a number of cattle water troughs. This well has a 1 h.p. pump and is approximately 1,200' deep.  There is another water well that is located near the barn area.  This well is an old oil well that was a dry hole.  The dry hole was cased and a cement plug was placed below the Carrizo Aquifer.  The well has not bee perforated but could be.  The property also has six stock tanks and a large reservoir that stocked with fish. One of the reservoirs has a pier and family gather place with a cabin, a deck and pier with a diving board.  When the reservoir is full it is from 9' to 14' deep.  The reservoir is not full in the pictures you see in this brochure.
