Let me get this straight in my head, your well pump/well-house is nowhere near the actual well???!!! AND it is beside a creek/river? In NC, you never attempt to dig/drill a well anywhere near a creek, stream or river. That is the bottom and the water isn't welled up in that area or is not good water. For all the houses I've lived in that had a well here in NC, all were dug at least 100ft. away from the lowest point of the land. A well that close to running water can collect toxins/deposits from run-off into the waterway. A well-digger here will tell you that you are wasting at least $600 if you dig near the bottom of the land. They usually don't hit a well there. At my current house, the well is about 250 ft. away from the lowest point (which is a run-off spillway for several lakes/ponds in the area). I am sure it is done differently throughout the country, but I am still dumbfounded that your pipes run SO close to the waters edge.

Wow, your wellhouse is huge! I've never seen one that big and with everything in it. At my current house, there is no wellhouse. There is a fake rock (about 2 and a half ft. tall) covering the well and pump. The tank, the pressure switch, and the water filter are inside the house. My well is about 20-30 feet from the house though. At my Mom's old house, that our family built, the wellhouse was about 75-100 ft. away from the house. The wellhouse was only about 4 ft. tall and 4 ft. square. It had the pump and a pressure switch in it. The tank and filter were inside the house.
At least you got the hard part done, figuring out where everything is and where it goes. I hope you get it all fixed up and without leaks on the first try.
