Monitoring Groundwater

Yesterday we were visited by two employees of the States of Jersey Environment Department, Environmental Protection Division. The purpose of the visit was to test the quality of the water in our boreholes and to ensure no contamination is taking place from pesticides or other chemicals. Testing is carried out twice each year and involves testing the water on site for pH, conductivity, temperature and alkalinity. Samples are then taken back to the lab for further microbiological and pesticide analysis.



The results of the latest testing can be viewed on a pdf file by clicking here for reference, our boreholes are numbered J128a and J128B

Really happy to see that you test your water borhole every year, It is best to check your water atleast one time ina year.
