New Well Site Suitability Review

Protection Activity: Planning

A new well site suitability review examines the vulnerability or suitability of a potential location for a new well. Locate new wells in areas that will maximize yield but minimize potential source water contamination. Completing a source water protection area delineation and potential contaminant inventory can assist with assessing site suitability so wells are located away from contamination sources.
