Wells Serving Two or More Homes
(approved public water systems)


Any well that is shared by more than one home, or provides water to a population that has no control over the maintenance and testing of the water supply must become an approved public water system.  Examples include:

  • Two or more homes are using water from the same well
  • The well is being used to provide water to a daycare
  • The well is being used to provide water to employees of a business
