Introduction Even the best-designed bore will lose efficiency over time. Reduced yield, higher pumping costs, and changes in water quality are all signs of a problem that starts small — but compounds quickly. Understanding why bores decline and how to restore them can save thousands of dollars and extend the working life of valuable groundwater infrastructure. The Hidden Causes of Bore Efficiency Loss 1. Biofouling (Iron Bacteria Slime) Iron bacteria are naturally present i
