My 160 year old farmhouse, HAD a water SPRING, that would gusher 100's of gallons of water per minute in the rainy seasons of the year,  It slowed to a trickle in mid summer and mid winter.  We have a good drilled water well, (which remains good) but I just noticed, I have not seen the SPRING gusher water in many months.  There are ten shallow gas wells  from 1200 to 3000 feet and one Marcellus.  What could have caused a dramatic change in the ground water conditions to affect a very old SPRING.

Lack of rain?  Unless wells were drilled uphill from the spring since you "noticed" the lack of water it probably is not from them.  Springs are usually very shallow.  Any logging going on nearby - big trucks/heavy equipment could have collapsed the spring. Or even the drilling crews driving over (or uphill) of the spring.
