Green County to Host Free Private Well Event

MONROE, Wis. — Green County private well owners can learn more about safe drinking water, well maintenance and local groundwater concerns during a free educational event Wednesday, July 29, in Monroe.

The event will be held from 6 to 7:30 p.m. in the lower-level Community Conference Rooms at the Green County Government Services Building, N3152 Wis. 81. It is being hosted by the Green County Water Quality Coalition, which includes members from the Green County Land and Water Conservation Department, University of Wisconsin-Extension and Green County Public Health.

Unlike public water systems, private wells are the responsibility of the property owner. That means owners are responsible for testing and maintaining their own water supply to make sure it is safe to drink.
