Groundwater Week 2024!

Happy Groundwater Week!

Happy #GroundWaterWeekWe live in Springfield, that’s right, Spring…field! Springs and other karst features like sinkholes, losing streams, and caves result from our limestone landscape, as does our plentiful groundwater. Groundwater is critical for drinking water, irrigation, and industry in Southwest Missouri, so protecting it is, too.
Check out this graphic to see how our karst topography affects water quality:
Did you know that groundwater is most Missourians’ main drinking water source?
If you use a well, be sure to conduct regular maintenance checks and water quality tests to protect the groundwater from contaminants.
 
We are offering $60 rebates for landowners in the Upper Little Sac Watershed to pump out their wells. If that’s you, call us at 417-888-8888 or visit our wepbage.
