This remind me of Aubrey Jaffer's story about his father making 'disposal wells' in Miami: https://people.csail.mit.edu/jaffer/Wells Because a lot of land got paved over, it was easily flooded, as the water couldn't make its way into the aquifer. Jaffer senior had a business digging wells, and discovered that they could also suck down the water in a flooded carpark, so added making plugholes for carparks to his business.

Although in theory this replenishes the aquifer, I'm not sure that water off a carpark floor is these days considered clean enough to inject into the aquifer. I think I read somewhere that a lot of these injection wells had to be plugged, but now I can't find that.
