Which statement is correct about well systems in Ontario?

All new wells are required to be artesian wells
Ministry of Agriculture maintains well records
Well owners are responsible for water treatment and pressure
Geologists create shared well agreements
Only public wells need pressure monitoring
Well records are maintained by local municipalities

The correct answer is: Well owners are responsible for water treatment and pressure

The statement regarding well owners being responsible for water treatment and pressure is accurate because well owners have the responsibility to ensure that their water supply is safe for consumption and meets health standards. This includes regular testing for contaminants and the implementation of necessary treatment processes to purify the water. Additionally, well owners must maintain the pressure in their systems to ensure consistent and adequate water flow within their properties. Proper maintenance and management of a private well system fall entirely on the owner, underscoring the importance of their role in ensuring both the quality and reliability of their water supply. This responsibility is not taken on by governmental agencies or other entities, which further emphasizes the need for well owners to be proactive in managing their systems effectively. Other statements may pertain to regulations or roles of different entities related to wells but do not reflect the direct responsibilities of well owners.
