Water Well Construction
DEQ Program Logo Water Well ConstructionMichigan Well Construction Program
Our mission is to protect the health of Michigan's citizens who rely on water wells as their drinking water source through implementation of the Michigan Water Well Construction and Pump Installation Code (Part 127, Act 368, PA 1978 and Administrative Rules). Protection of public health, ground water resources, and aquifers is accomplished by assuring that water wells are constructed, operated, and decommissioned in a technically sound manner.
