Annotation
The possibilities of obtaining domestic supplies of underground water were investigated at seven small blocks at Primrose Sands. Drilling in dolerite is not recommended. Most sites are unsuitable but a spear bore or well on lot 55 may produce groundwater. Further investigation at this latter site is recommended.
