Basic water system management will be covered as well as how to treat pre-existing water quality problems. Material covered will include: management of private water supplies; how to interpret a water test report; and a question and answer session. Presenters for the program include Bryan Swistock, Water Resource specialist, Penn State University and Mark Madden, Penn State Cooperative Extension, Sullivan County.
