Rhode Island Ground Water Association
Urgent Notice - Flooded Wells
The Rhode Island Ground Water Association is encouraging all private well
owners to have their well water tested for coliform bacteria after last
month's
record-setting rainstorm.
Flood conditions can allow bacterial, viral,
parasite, or chemical contamination to enter the top of your well or seep
down along your well casing. Even if flood water did not rise over the top
of your well casing, a neighboring well may have been flooded, which may
allow contamination to migrate underground to your well.
Please see our
Flooded Well Information page for more information.
