Depends on the specifics. Aquifers are often totally independent of lakes.
Is your lake stream or river fed? If it has no incoming river or stream, I
think it's technically a pond.

Is anyone here aware of a situation where the level of an inland lake
has dropped due to the installation of a high capacity municipal well?

I am trying to find information that will put us at ease here about a
well that is likely to draw water from the same source that supplies
nearby lakes.

Thanks!
