Well owner training set for July 24, Fredericksburg

Private water well management training is slated for July 24 in Fredericksburg.

The free Texas Well Owner Network (TWON) training is available for anyone interested in private water well management within the Pedernales River watershed, according to AgriLife Today.

Many Texas residents depend on household wells for water needs. The training will help owners become familiar with Texas groundwater resources, maintenance of septic systems and wells, water quality and water treatment. The training is one of 30 being conducted statewide by the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service.

Well water samples are not required for the training, but can be submitted for screening. The cost is $5 per sample and payment is due at time samples are submitted.
