Legal Perspectives for 2025 ?? The legal landscape for the water well industry is shifting from defense to offense in 2025, with mandatory connection emerging as the key issue. Local and state governments are pushing regulations that require property owners to connect to municipal water systems, often for economic reasons. Some states, like Georgia, have successfully passed anti-mandatory connection laws, while others are actively lobbying to protect private wells. ??PFAS Regulations continue to evolve, with the EPA designating certain PFAS compounds as hazardous substances, increasing disposal challenges. ??Groundwater Authority remains a hot topic, with the federal government asserting more control over water rights, as seen in Texas v. New Mexico and ongoing disputes in the Colorado River Basin. ??Surface Water & Groundwater Connections are under scrutiny, with recent legal cases in California and Washington impacting well regulations and groundwater adjudications. ?? Advocacy is key to protecting groundwater rights and private water wells. Read the entire Richardson Report at https://lnkd.in/ek4r788h. #Groundwater #WaterWellIndustry #WaterRights

?? Strengthening Industry Data Through Collaboration! ?? On February 27, the WSC Statistical Reports Program Committee, led by Jill Boudreau (Xylem), met to refine and clarify reporting categories, ensuring our data continues to serve the industry effectively. Despite coming from competing companies, these industry professionals united with one goal: improving water well systems reporting for the benefit of all. ??
