Today, the Department of Water Resources (DWR) released the Be Well Prepared initiative. DWR is providing tools and resources to help communities that are dependent on groundwater and experiencing climate-driven weather extremes, to prepare for potential impacts to household water supplies. The Be Well Prepared initiative focuses on domestic well owners and residents that use and maintain their well.
Through the Be Well Prepared initiative, DWR is empowering domestic drinking water well users by providing the information and resources they need to maintain a safe and reliable household water supply.
The Be Well Prepared website resources aim to help well owners, users, and communities dependent on groundwater Be Well Prepared. These resources include information that every well owner should know and understand about:
- Groundwater Conditions - local groundwater conditions, including groundwater levels and water quality
- Well Maintenance - potential risks to the well’s water supply; well construction details, such as age, depth, condition, and pump details
- Water Quality - how to maintain a drinking water well, and how to test and treat well water
- Assistance - where to get help if a well fails
