Health Department Sampling Wells Endangered by Flood Waters

Summary


The Jo Daviess County Health Department Environmental Health Office will sample wells which may have been contaminated by flooding for bacteria and nitrates at no charge.

Bacteria, chemicals, and other contaminants contained in floodwaters can enter the top of a well, seep down its casing, or migrate underground to your well via a neighbor's flooded well. Such contamination can make your water unsafe for drinking, cooking or bathing.
