    Complaint Description and Writeup

    11/20/2024 - WNL - Complainant states the irrigation well has always pumped sand. Well completion date 8/11/2022, lic.#867. Richard Cash and Jason Craig advised the owner to keep flushing the well, this did not help. The well was intended to run for the 2023 crop season. The pump burnt out before the growing season was done. RIchard Cash wanted to fix the well by K-Packer. Water Well solutions advised against this, but Cash wanted to try it. The well collapsed. This happened some time in 2024. Complainant states that RIchard Cash was working for TN Tractor Irrigation at this time and was covering the cost. Will Little & Garrett Crisp inspected the well on 11/19/2024. Visible evidence of sand is still present. Photo log completed of the inspection.
