Project Objective
JEA installed a new potable water supply well on the JEA property located at the corner of 2nd Street East and Clark Street. This well was needed to replace other local wells that have reached the end of their service lives.
This well will be one of over 122 active wells that are part of a larger JEA regional water supply transmission system. This new well will improve our systems overall water pressure, reliability and continue to provide a robust water supply system throughout JEA’s service territory.

Conditions During Construction
Construction took place on JEA’s property, and within the City of Jacksonville rights of way, and easements. The contractor was required to use very large drilling equipment, trucks and generators to install the deep Floridan Aquifer well. Construction activity onsite will be continuous throughout the entire project.
