Pal Pauer, Celebration of Life. A Virtual Gathering of the Primary Water Community

Pal Pauer, Celebration of Life Virtual Gathering of the Primary Water Community On behalf of the Primary Water Institute, we are saddened to announce that our founder, Pal Pauer passed away on January 27, 2022. We have lost a true pioneer who spent his life helping people worldwide locate and drill for primary water. His motto for the Primary Water Institute was “Water Beyond Politics”, and as he said “It’s hard to get the point across to many people in the U.S. that the Earth makes water. We can access it and solve our problems. Clean, virtually infinite sources of water are right under our feet.” Pal’s commitment to providing water for those without it was extraordinary. It was not only his life’s work and his life’s mission, but it was also his passion. He spoke about it constantly and was always thinking ahead about the next projects he would do. He did not let hardship or minor issues stop him from pursuing his goals. Most recently Pal was enamored with the potential of helping some of the native tribes in the southwestern United States and was working with his dear friend Dr. Ed Spencer and Dr Wayne Weber to try to bring this into fruition. Unfortunately, Pal left us before being able to fulfill that dream. Pal was also committed to helping others learn the art of finding and drilling for primary water, so that his legacy could live on. There are a number of Pal’s protégées around the world that are committed to carrying on Pal’s work. Pal also approached the ability to access primary water from a place of integrity and respect of this gift and made a conscious effort to honor and not exploit this abundant blessing from the deep. The world is so much richer because of the enormous contributions Pal made in primary water discovery and development. Pal applied what he learned about primary water and drilled more than 800 primary water wells in California and around the world. From 1961 to 2021. Pal supervised and was involved in numerous Primary Water drilling projects in Tanzania, Kenya, Morocco, Hungary, Mexico, the Philippines, Marshall Islands and the . Many of these projects were in places that got little precipitation and little hope of a successful, traditional ground water well. Pal proved beyond a shadow of a doubt, that the earth makes water and there is plenty available to solve the global water crisis. He said, “We hear that the wars of the 21st century will be fought over water – rather than oil as in the past. Nothing holds more potential to abolish these wars – and ameliorate the shocking condition of nearly one billion people on earth without access to clean, safe water — than the science of Primary Water.” Pal Pauer When Pal was on a water project, it did not end with the site location. He would work with the driller until the well was completed and would leave explicit advice on test pumping. I think one of most satisfying projects Pal worked on was the Garlock Project in the Tehachapi’s. Pal frequently talked about the fact that Stephan Riess must be smiling to know that there is now verified evidence of abundant primary water available from the Garlock Fault. Having proved this, I think Pal is smiling as well.
