Kiryas Joel
DEC approves well on KJ-owned land
State environmental officials have approved a new Kiryas Joel well that bolsters the booming community's limited water supply by 10 percent.
A water-supply permit signed March 9 allows the village to draw up to 135,000 gallons a day from the new well, the sixth on property Kiryas Joel owns off Larkin Drive in the Town of Monroe. Water drawn from the well-field is piped under Route 17 to homes and businesses in Kiryas Joel.
Village officials see the well as a stopgap measure and future backup source as they plan a 13-mile pipeline to tap New York City's Catskill Aqueduct. But neighboring communities are fighting the $22 million pipeline project and Orange County has filed a lawsuit challenging its environmental review.
In response to written concerns from the nearby Village of Harriman, the state Department of Environmental Conservation has stipulated that all of Kiryas Joel's Larkin Drive wells be pumped no more than 18 hours a day. Until now, the DEC had allowed them to be used longer, as long as the daily average over a month didn't exceed 18 hours. Kiryas Joel Administrator Gedalye Szegedin said that complying with the new restriction would be too complicated and that the village will challenge that decision.
