Way too much friction loss with 3/4 @ 3000ft. What's wrong with the well? You will be paying a lot to trench 3000 ft. plus the piping and meter.
Yes at 3000 ft have you had estimates? What is the city charge for the connection?
But I would go with the largest you can afford. I am also surprised the city building inspector has not told you the min size they would allow for that distant
Charlea...
How many bathrooms in the house?
Do you have or are you planning on installing a lawn sprinkler system?
Let us know and we can tell you more, OK?

There is mining going on in area. When they started 6 moths ago a moth later the well went dry I have to pump about 300g a week in it so we have water
Hi Charlea
Answer my question(s) above and I'll post back later tonight (around 9:00 eastern time)
My home has 4 bathr & no to sprinkler system I have the machine to dig it
Check with your local inspector, but I'd suggest piping this up at 1.75"... should be plenty for 4 bathroom house even at the distance you stated... ;)

Think you massplumber
Charlea, I would also contact the mining co. In my area they could be held liable for the loss of the well. Good luck
