What is a monitoring well network?
A groundwater network is a set of wells at which water levels are routinely measured.
What is Wet Season?
Wet Season is a term that is used to identify the time of the year when water tables are at their highest. This typically occurs between November and March. The majority of the Department’s land evaluations (perc tests) require wet season testing to ensure that septic systems are designed to have adequate separation from the water table.
