About the program

Registration for this program has now closed. The NSW EPA will be in contact with those who submitted their details.

-----------------------------------

Following the detection of low levels of PFAS in bores that provide residential water supply, the NSW Environment Protection Authority (EPA) is working with stakeholders with regard to the testing of private bores in Tarcutta. This testing is scheduled to occur as part of a NSW Government bore water screening program.

The EPA will be offering this opt-in screening service, free of charge, on Wednesday 11 June and Thursday 12 June 2025.

If you have a private bore on your property, you can register for this testing by completing the form below.

Town tap water is safe to drink and use.

If you have any further questions about the bore screening program, please contact the EPA via email RegOps.IMEH@epa.nsw.gov.au or phone 131 555.

On the day

We ask that any animals on the property are secured, where appropriate, to assist NSW EPA representatives with accessing your bore in order to take the required groundwater sample. Don't forget to bring your signed consent form.
