    National Groundwater Awareness Week will take place March 5-11, 2017, and the National Ground Water Association (NGWA) would like to invite your organization to be a “Groundwater Advocate.”

    This is a time when NGWA and its partners educate the public about the resource of groundwater, its importance to public health, quality of living, and the environment. For those who rely on groundwater from a household water well, it also is a time to help them learn how to take care of their water well system.

    Visit the NGWA website to learn more about being a Groundwater Advocate.
