A high production rate water well system combines a horizontal production liner in the aquifer with an existing vertical well or pump that extends down thereto, with one end portion of the liner passing a distance from the vertical well that does not exceed about 5% of the drainage radius of the later. High flow rate recharge also can be accomplished by the same system.
