Contaminated drinking water wells are identified through the sampling efforts of the local County Public Health Units supported by the Water Supply Restoration Program (WSRP) funding.
Chapter 376.307(1)(e)4, Florida Statutes, authorizes subsidies for increased costs associated with potable water well construction for drinking water wells within delineated areas of hazardous waste contamination. The amount is limited to one-half the cost of the well including testing, or one-half the present-worth of the 10-year cost of providing and maintaining filters, and is subject to federal income tax laws.
