The Safe Drinking Water Clinic is designed for people who manage one of these private drinking water supplies. We’ll cover how to test and protect your well or spring, and when water treatment might make sense. We will also discuss well and spring system inspection and maintenance so you know how to protect your family, your property, and the groundwater we share.
