Flood waters and standing waters pose various risks, including infectious diseases, chemical hazards and injuries. If you use a household well and it has flooded, do not turn on the pump due to danger of electric shock. Assume that your well is contaminated with bacteria and needs to be disinfected. Do not drink or wash with water from the flooded well. Contact the local health department or a certified laboratory to have your well sampled for contamination.
