AGRICULTURAL (NON-DRINKING WATER WELL) TRACK

The GSP’s Agricultural (Non-Drinking) Water Well Mitigation Track is intended to provide long-term mitigation for those experiencing a loss of access to Floridan aquifer well water for irrigation and other non-drinking water uses due to a significant lowering of water levels in their permitted wells.

If your agricultural or other non-drinking water located within the Mitigation Area, permitted by Georgia EPD, has lost access to Floridan aquifer water, please contact the GSP to start the mitigation claim process.

CRITERIA FOR A CLAIM TO QUALIFY

The well is an existing privately owned Floridan aquifer well located within the Mitigation Area and was constructed prior to April 2025, and has undergone the on-site assessment via the GSP claims process.

The well has experienced a significant lowering of water level due to Floridan aquifer groundwater withdrawals from the Bulloch and Bryan municipal supply wells (see full mitigation plan for additional details).

Non-Floridan Aquifer wells, such as surficial, Miocene, or other shallow wells are not eligible for mitigation under the GSP. Issues with well water quality, casing damage, or other well issues unrelated to reductions in water levels due to the Bulloch and Bryan municipal well withdraws are not eligible under the GSP.

CLAIMS PROCESS

  • Well owner fills out an online claim form or calls GSP upon loss of water supply to set up an on-site assessment.

  • GSP on-call licensed well driller and staff will evaluate the likely causation of well failure to determine if the claim qualifies for mitigation through GSP funding.

  • If the claim qualifies for mitigation, GSP staff will direct the on-call licensed well driller to perform immediate repairs/mitigation to the impact well.
