The Village of Forestville, NY is served by a system of springs which were contaminated with Giardia by interaction with surface water. In addition, the springs were producing an inadequate supply of water for the village. The wellhead protection program redeveloped the springs to increase supply and protect the springs from future surface water contamination. Footage of the source area and water system illustrate the interviews with local people. This is useful for local government and agencies faced with protecting public groundwater supplies.
