Penn State Extension Hosting 5 Safe Drinking Water Well Clinics In Cameron, Cumberland, Potter, York Counties

The
Penn State Extension is hosting five in-person Safe Drinking Water Clinics to help water well and spring owners understand how to protect, test and treat their water.

More than one million homes and farms across Pennsylvania rely on private wells and springs for their drinking water—yet many owners are unaware of the steps needed to safeguard these vital supplies. 

The "Safe Drinking Water Clinic" is designed to empower private well and spring owners with the knowledge and tools to protect their water source, their property, and their health. 

Learn how to properly test your water, explore treatment options, and understand essential maintenance and inspection practices to ensure long-term water quality and system reliability. 

During this no-cost, ninety-minute workshop, participants will also have the opportunity to test their home’s drinking water and gain practical insights into protecting both their family and the shared groundwater resources beneath their feet.

Free water testing is frequently offered to a limited number of households at these workshops.
