Many Wells in North Carolina Remain Unsafe After Helene's Deluge - New York Times - Climate Section (Oct 25) |
|
Oct 25 · Weeks after Hurricane Helene ravaged western North Carolina with a record downpour, many people still do not have clean drinking water. More than 150,000 municipal-water customers remain under boil-water notices, and around four in 10 of all private wells tested so far weren’t safe to drink from.
It’s a challenge more Americans could face as flood damage increases under global warming. In the United States, about 42 million people get their water from private wells, which are largely unregulated. And when floodwaters overrun a well, contamination can seep in - whether sewage, or pesticides, or other sources.
