The Illinois Department of Public Health and the Illinois State Water Survey are reminding private well-owners in the state to properly maintain their wells and test them for potential contaminants.  Contamination is caused by improper construction, poor maintenance, or releases of contaminants into the well’s aquifer.  Officials say testing for contaminants is a simple and effective way to ensure that private wells are safe and don’t pose a health risk.
