  1. Groundwater Exploration & Groundwater Exploration & Groundwater Permitting Groundwater Permitting Introduction Pura Vida Drilling specializes in safe, compliant groundwater exploration and groundwater permitting for municipal, agricultural, and private projects in Costa Rica. This step-by-step guide explains how we evaluate sites, obtain permits, and deliver reliable water supplies. Step 1 — Initial Consultation & Site Assessment 1.Schedule a consultation with Pura Vida Drilling to discuss objectives, water demand, and timelines. 2.Collect site details: GPS coordinates, land ownership, nearby water users, and known geological information. 3.Conduct a desktop review of hydrogeology and existing water resources. Step 2 — Preliminary Field Survey 1.Perform a walkover survey to identify access, terrain constraints, and potential environmental sensitivities. 2.Take baseline photos, topographic notes, and mark proposed borehole locations. 3.Recommend initial locations for test drilling based on surface indicators and desktop data. Step 3 — Test Drilling & Hydrogeological Investigation 1.Mobilize drilling crew and equipment to the approved test site. 2.Drill exploratory boreholes to assess depth to water, aquifer thickness, and yield potential. 3.Conduct pumping tests, water-level monitoring, and water-quality sampling. 4.Analyze results to determine sustainable yield and recommended well construction design.

  2. Step 4 — Prepare Permit Application 1.Compile technical report: site plan, drilling log, hydrogeological findings, pumping test data, and water-quality results. 2.Complete required government application forms and attach the technical report. 3.Submit permit application to the relevant Costa Rican authority and coordinate any additional environmental clearances. Step 5 — Permit Review & Approval 1.Respond promptly to regulator queries and provide any requested clarifications. 2.Once approved, review permit conditions (e.g., monitoring, extraction limits, reporting) and schedule production well drilling. Step 6 — Production Well Construction & Handover 1.Construct the production well per the approved design and permit conditions. 2.Perform final pump testing and install monitoring equipment if required. 3.Deliver as-built documentation, water-quality certificates, and operation/maintenance instructions to the client. Closing — Compliance & Long-Term Monitoring Maintain compliance with permit terms through scheduled monitoring, reporting, and adaptive management.
