    Have two systems with four @ 200' deep vertical wells. Need to do some landscape and water control work but not sure exactly where wells are located - records and maps were lost and driller gone. Know where lines come out of the house and general location. Wells drilled in 1993 so no tracers installed. Closed loop system. Any thoughts?

    I bet you could use a infrared camera.

    Check your county website. Health dept keeps record of wells and septic.

    Open wells yes, closed wells usually do not need permits and there are no records.

    Depends on the state. I have spoken to some drillers in Va and they get permits for geo. Ohio apparently does not.
