An EPA Source Water Web Guide

This web-guide is a selected and very partial collection of available source water protection tools for community planners, public water supply operators, members of local source water protection teams, and anyone interested in protecting their sources of drinking water. It primarily focuses on source water resources either produced by EPA, or which EPA has supported through grants. The home pages of these organizations and many other EPA Drinking Water Partners are provided elsewhere. If you have a recommendation for this collection, please send the URL and a brief description to hall.beth@epa.gov.
