Well Owners Encouraged to ‘know your well’

The Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality is urging private well owners to “know your well”, according to D-E-Q spokesman Keith Guille. He says that people tend to assume that private well water is always safe, which he says is not  the case. Guile points out that there is no governmental regulation of private wells. Guille says March 13th has been designated as “know your well” day.  More information on well safety is available at a D-E-Q website, www.knowyourwell.org.
