The
water you drink |
Drinking water suppliers now provide reports (sometimes
called consumer confidence reports) that tell where drinking
water comes from, and what contaminants may be in it. Read
your water quality
report if it is online, or contact your water supplier
to get a copy. |
To view the information about your drinking water supplier
that is in EPA's database, enter part or all of your water
supplier's name, or browse the list of counties in your
state. Then, click the "Search" button. |
If your drinking water comes from a private well, you are responsible
for your water's safety. EPA rules do not apply to private wells
(although some state rules do), but EPA
recommends that well owners have their water tested annually.
Contact your state to get a list
of certified commercial laboratories that test drinking water.

Compliance trends |
Each state produces an annual report on trends among its
drinking water systems. Wyoming's report is not online,
but read EPA's national summary to learn
how to get a copy. |
|
Funds for safer water |
States can use funds that the EPA makes available through the
Drinking Water State Revolving Fund program to help their water
suppliers improve drinking water quality. Find out more about Wyoming's program.
