Need of Thompsonville, Conn, for more water led to decision to construct caisson well, 106 in. in outside diam, which could supply 2,000,000 gpd; caisson well is reinforced concrete vertical hollow shaft with open bottom; hollow shaft structure was formed by two sets of precast reinforced concrete cylinders; annular space between outer and inner cylinders was filled with grout; well was equipped with 1400-gpm Pomona pump.
