Protecting MI Source Webinar Series
________________________________________________________________________



Register today for Protecting MI Source Webinar Series!

Our drinking water comes from a variety of sources including groundwater, rivers, and lakes. There are thousands of water supplies providing drinking water to the public and hundreds of thousands more private water wells supplying water to millions of people in Michigan and millions more across the Great Lakes Region. Knowing and understanding the quality and quantity of the source is a critical first step in planning and developing sustainable approaches and managing our drinking water resources. The Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE) presents this webinar series [ [link removed] ] to highlight how agencies, communities, universities, local organizations, and citizens can promote and protect drinking water sources. A question-and-answer period will follow each presentation.

This webinar series is provided through a collaborative partnership with EGLE, the Institute of Water Research at Michigan State University (IWRMSU), and the Michigan Rural Water Association (MRWA).?More webinars will be added throughout the year.

Upcoming webinar in the series

*July 23, 2024*
*Health Risks of Waterborne Pathogens in Public Water Supply Wells from Minnesota [ [link removed] ]
Virtual (Free)*

Waterborne pathogens like Cryptosporidium, Salmonella, and norovirus can contaminate groundwater, and these pathogens pose a health risk to consumers when groundwater is used as a source of public drinking water. However, the extent of contamination and prevailing health risks in real-world public drinking water systems are not well-defined based on previous scientific studies. This session will highlight occurrence and health risks of multiple waterborne pathogens in source water for public supply wells across the state of Minnesota and be informative to other states in the Upper Great Lakes region.

Presenter information: Dr. Tucker Burch is a Research Agricultural Engineer with USDA?s Agricultural Research Service in Marshfield, Wisconsin. His research program is focused on health risks associated with waterborne pathogens. Dr. Burch has worked on studies related to management of livestock manure and municipal biosolids, risk assessment for drinking water from contaminated private wells in Wisconsin, and risk assessment for waterborne pathogens in public wells in Minnesota.
