There is no comprehensive knowledge
about the locations of private wells, the populations served by
these sources, potential contaminants that might be present in
private well water in specific areas of the country, or the
potential health risks associated with drinking water from these
sources. The goal of this generic clearance information collection
request (Generic ICR) is to expedite investigations of private well
water for drinking in response to specific investigation requests.
Each investigation will assess exposure to contaminants in drinking
water from private wells in a geographic area specified by the
requesting entity. Requesting entities may be any state,
territorial, local, or tribal health department in the United
States. Methods to collect data include questionnaires and analysis
of clinical specimens and/or environmental samples.
