Normally you case with 4” PVC plastic pipe that has slits sawed in it where your aquifer is. Above that it is steel casing (at least the top 10-20’).

If it is shallow, you can use a jet pump on surface. My well is 220’ deep and my pump is set at 200’, it is a 3/4 HP submersible.

You might want to call DOGGR (they are called something else now) to find out what is allowed (for a friend).

A neighbor has used a post hole auger with extensions to dig a shallow well and it has worked out. Definitely find out where your utilities are first.
