Drought resources
Videos/Resources on water supply shortages and drought conditions:
- Amid drought, property owners coping with dry wells
- What Can I Do When My Well Goes Dry?
- Submit water supply issues via the drought reporter
- Find more information and resources
- For the current drought status and other resources
- Temporary solutions for dry wells:
- fill food-safe containers with water from a known safe source that is a tested water supply (for example, a community or municipal water system or a neighbor’s or family member’s home)
- buy water from a bulk water hauler and filling up a water tank; do not fill wells or spring boxes with water delivered by a water hauler - it could seep into the surrounding soils and bedrock before you can use it and it is against state regulation.
- buy bottled water.
- hire a well driller to make well improvements, like lowering pumps, deepening existing wells, or drilling new wells
- for financial assistance, low-cost financing options may be available to eligible homeowners for the repair or replacement of failed septic and/or water systems.
- Roadside Springs:
- not considered a safe source of water for drinking and cooking (or other ways of swallowing water)
- are frequently contaminated by bacteria or other germs that can make people sick, which happened recently in New Hampshire
- as a last resort during an emergency water outage, roadside springs may offer a temporary solution.
- It is okay to use water from roadside springs for bathing, washing clothes, and flushing toilets: boil water for one minute before using it for drinking, cooking, washing fruits and vegetables, brushing teeth, and making ice cubes, and concentrated juices
- even after boiling there could be health risks, especially for infants, older adults, and people with weakened immune systems.
