Arizona Domestic Water Wells

Abstract

Arizona has stringent permit requirements for submitting a notice of intent to drill a new water supply well for domestic use. The construction diagram and geologic log of all wells in the state are recorded with the Arizona Department of Water Resources (ADWR). The ADWR website – www.AzWater.gov/AzDWR/ —provides a wealth of information for the private domestic well owner. Well owners are responsible for the registration, repair, maintenance and up to-date record-keeping of their own wells and to monitor water quality to assure safe drinking water.
