Decommissioning Water Wells to Protect Water Quality and Human Health
Published 2008
Groundwater normally is provided with some degree of protection by a natural filter of soil, sand, and gravel in the natural soil profile. All wells are holes in that filter that can potentially allow contaminants to flow into our groundwater supply. Illegal wells represent the greatest threat. They exist in every county. All illegal water wells must be decommissioned following requirements found in the Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services Title 178, Chapter 12.
