Water Well Program

The goal of this program is to assure water systems are properly located, constructed, and provide water satisfactory for consumption. Prior to the construction of a new well, a permit from the Health Department is required to ensure the protection of groundwater. Surveys and sampling of water well supplies are conducted upon the suspected illness of waterborne diseases. Biennial surveys and routine sampling are performed on non-community public water supplies.
