Water Valley School

10-29376 – Rge Rd 52

Water Valley, Alberta

Register for this FREE water well management workshop hosted by Mountain View County and presented by the Working Well Program.

Did you know that a poorly maintained water well can put your water supply at risk of contamination and reduce your well yield?

If you use your water well for household purposes, the key to ensuring your water supply is safe and secure is knowing how groundwater works, learning about your well and understanding how to properly maintain it.

Proper water well siting, construction and maintenance will help protect your well from biofouling and contamination, save you costly repairs, and ensure your well water yields are sustained over many years.

Learn what you can do to protect your well. Attend the FREE, in-person water well management workshop hosted by Mountain View County, and presented by the Working Well Program, with technical expertise provided by Alberta Agriculture and Irrigation, Alberta Environment and Protected Areas, Alberta Health Services and licensed water well drillers.

This is a comprehensive workshop and during the session the presenters will cover:

  • Understanding groundwater
  • How your well works
  • Finding and understanding your drilling report
  • How to “draw your well”
  • Water well problems
  • Top 10 well enemies
  • Shock chlorinating your well
  • Taking and testing water samples
