Citizens - there are more private wells than public water supplies in Pennsylvania. In many regions, the natural gas companies have conducted baseline testing and have returned the data to you. The problem is that the industry has the data and can easily compile, but for citizens they are lacking an explanation of the data and it is not being compiled. We need to work together to protect our groundwater and surfacewater resources.
To help - send NO Money - All that is being asked is as follows:
1. Send a copy of your water quality data or host a community meeting where the water quality data could be compiled. To request a community meeting - email brian.oram@wilkes.edu or bfenviro@ptd.net.
Please put Citizen Database in Subject.
2. Release the data to the Citizens Groundwater / Surfacewater Database at Wilkes University. Here is the information sheet.
3. Email the information to the addresses above or send a hardcopy to
