DRINKING WATER WELL MITIGATION TRACK
The GSP’s Drinking Water Well Mitigation Track is intended to provide emergency and interim drinking water supplies and long-term mitigation for those experiencing a loss of access to drinking water due to a significant lowering of water levels in their private well.
If your household has lost access to Floridan Aquifer drinking water or agricultural water, please call the GSP to arrange emergency bottled water supplies within 24-hours and an interim measure (such as a water tank) within 72-hours. Tenants or well owners may call to arrange.

WHO CAN SUBMIT A CLAIM?
Domestic (House) Well Owners
Multi-Use Drinking Water Well Owners
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 user (owner or tenant) contacts GSP upon loss of drinking water supplies to receive emergency bottled water within 24 hours and interim supplies system within 72 hours.
The well owner then fills out an online claim form or calls GSP for assistance.
GSP on-call licensed well driller and staff will perform an on-site assessment and gather information from well owner.
GSP on-call licensed well driller and Well Mitigation Manager (or his assign) 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.
