11/1 - Rural Community Water: Understanding Public and Private Sources of Drinking Water
University of Illinois Extension Community and Economic Development will air a free webinar to discuss what local officials need to know about small drinking water systems, private wells, and septic systems, as well as share tools available to help communities make sure their drinking water is safe and meets standards. Our presenter and expert, Steve Wilson, is a Groundwater Hydrologist who has been at the Illinois State Water Survey (ISWS) since 1983. His research is related to groundwater quantity/quality issues and drinking water. More recently, he has worked on projects involving small water and wastewater systems, those most likely to be out of compliance with the SDWA (Safe Drinking Water Act) and the CWA (Clean Water Act). He has led over 40 research projects and been funded by over 20 different local, state, and federal entities. He authored the Private Well Class and manages WaterOperator.org.
