A new well in 2019
In the spring of 2019, a new well was drilled at the Sagarmatha centre. The water is taken directly from the groundwater table. But the groundwater level is constantly dropping due to new construction in the area. Previously, new drilling was required approximately every five to ten years. But in recent years, it has been necessary to drill two years apart.
