Yes, once a year is enough. Turn it fully closed and open again to keep the seat from seizing, and watch for weeping at the stem afterwards. A valve that leaks after the test needs replacing, not tightening harder.
The lot sits close to the water table, so groundwater finds the box. It does not harm the valve itself, though it does hide the operating nut and slows anyone trying to reach it. Pumping or bailing the box is the first step in a real shutoff.
Only without a working backflow preventer between the two. Yard systems draw from the same supply, and that device is what keeps direction one way. Have it tested when the system is recommissioned each year.
Power loss stops well pumps and any sewage ejector, and pressure loss on a public system can pull contaminants in. Fill containers before a storm and heed any boil advisory afterwards. Inland stretches toward Newport and Peletier see the same problem on the same nights.
