HomeMy WebLinkAboutC.054.93011_1229Whereas, Legislation is being proposed in the North Carolina House and Senate that will direct the Commission
for Health Services to adopt rules concerning local health department permitting inspection and testing of
Private water supply wells and wells serving transient water systems and to appropriate funds for local well
inspection and testing programs;
Whereas, safe potable water from private wells is important to the public's health;
Whereas, significant start-up funding will be necessary to adequately staff and equip a local well program;
Whereas, the supply of Registered Sanitarians is limited and recruitment and retention of Registered
Sanitarians is very difficult;
Whereas, a limited supply of R.S. leads to hiring of intem level employees which required months of training to
be come authorized;
Whereas, the State Environmental Health Program has limited ability to provide RS training in a timely
manner;
Whereas, an adequate State Environmental Health support, training, and laboratory testing structure is needed
prior to implementation of a statewide local well program;
Whereas, a new well program will require training of existing supervisory and field staff;
Whereas, a new well program will require extensive amounts of time to develop local policies and procedures -
which should largely be consistent throughout the state;
Therefore Be It Resolved, the Iredell County Board of Health and Iredell County Commissioners supports
activities that lead to safe potable water from private wells - including development of a local well program; and
Therefore Be It Resolved, that the state assure adequate time is provided to budget for and hire local staff
prior to the implementation of a local well program; and
Therefore Be It Resolved, that the state assure adequate state infrastructure to support local counties in
testing, training and consultation prior to implementation of a local well program; and
Therefore Be It Resolved, that the state develop a template of a Local Well Program policy and procedures
for use by local health departments prior to the implementation of a local well program; and
Be it further resolved, that the state assure adequate start-up funding, planning time and training prior to
implementation of a local well program.
