Preventing groundwater pollution is important because once contaminants enter groundwater, it can be very difficult and expensive to treat. If you’re interested in learning more about groundwater pollution, please visit: https://groundwater.org/threats/contamination/

There are so many easy ways to protect and conserve ground water such as planting native plants or using fewer chemicals in your home and yard and properly disposing of them.

If you have chemicals you need to dispose of, visit https://www.indy.gov/activity/hazardous-waste-dropoff-sites

Forty-three million people in the US get water from private groundwater wells which are not subject to any regulations. No matter where you get your water protecting the source is important.
