Inspect and replace the drop pipe. 1. Well Pump Is Too Low. If sand suddenly appears in your water despite the well pump working as it should, it could be a sign that the pump has fallen too low in the well and is now scraping the bottom. A well pump should be set at about 10 to 20 ft from the bottom of the well.Web

TP1 was driven through approximately 6 m of overlying sands with little resistance, and then driven through calcareous siltstone up to a depth of 12.7 m (6.7 m into rock). Increased driving resistance was noted by Settgast ( 1980 ) at a depth of about 5 m below top of rock as the pile penetrated about 1 m of calcareous sandstone.Web
