Clean Groundwater Matters in Virginia

Does clean groundwater matter in Virginia?

The recent 2025 water crisis in Richmond serves as a powerful reminder of the crucial role that clean groundwater plays in our everyday lives. Even the slightest hint of contamination can disrupt our routines and pose serious risks to our health and well-being. If your drinking water comes from a drinking water well, then clean groundwater should matter to you.

Not surprisingly, the crisis underscores the importance of remaining vigilant. It highlights the necessity of proactive measures to ensure that our drinking water, whether from a public source or groundwater is free of contaminants.

Amazingly, almost a quarter of Virginians rely on private wells for their drinking water, highlighting the critical importance of clean groundwater.

At Pollard Environmental our focus does not include municipal water systems. However, we routinely witness the impact that leaking underground heating oil tanks cause to private drinking water wells. Clean water matters especially if the water in questions is from your own well!
