This program monitors potable well water in areas throughout Brevard County surrounding risk sources with potential and/or current contamination due to the leaking of tanks or spillage of the materials. Potable water wells that are within a certain distance of these risk sources are sampled, characterized, given a Florida Unique Well ID and DGPS'ed. The sample results are tracked and monitored.
