Private Water Systems
Under the Private Water Systems Program, registered sanitarians evaluate and sample private water systems, which include wells, cisterns, springs, ponds, and hauled water storage tanks. The Clark County Combined Health District issues permits for the development of new private water systems as well as for the alteration of existing systems and inspects and samples these systems prior to being put into use. The first step in properly abandoning a private water system is to contact the local board of health. The Clark County Combined Health District can provide sealing information and legal requirements to the homeowner. As of January 1, 2000, a permit is required in the State of Ohio to seal a private water system, unless the work is performed by the homeowner. The Clark County Combined Health District has been active in increasing the public awareness of proper private water system abandonment. Seminars have been held in communities impacted by municipal water line extensions. In addition to providing education on proper abandonment, we are attempting to locate and secure funding sources (i.e. grant monies, low interest loans, etc.) that could help reduce the homeowner’s cost associated with properly abandoning a private water system.
