ABSTRACT:
A system for lowering the gravitational water level around below-grade structures by means of an exterior wet well and an electric pump lift. The system utilizes a well lined with a water impervious material that has a plurality of openings at its lower end. A submersible pump is located at the bottom of the well which pump is operated by a level control device to maintain the water level at the bottom of the well at a predetermined height. The predetermined level is below the lowest level of the structure that is to be dewatered thereby lowering the water level and relieving water pressure around the structure.
