The Water Services group monitors groundwater in delineated areas, performs contamination sampling (Ethylene Di-Bromide) for pesticides in old grove/agricultural areas, and inspects wells for chemical contaminations. The Water Services group records site readings on technical field equipment, turn in GPS info by electronically uploading data transferred e-mail coordinates to Tallahassee Bureau of Water Programs.
