The seller of the real estate is responsible. However, the seller may designate their attorney, real estate agent or broker, the laboratory person conducting the water testing, or a private party to assist them in complying with water testing and reporting requirements. The seller must report specific information about the well. To assure all necessary information is provided, the seller should complete a Domestic Well Testing For Real Estate Transaction form. Blank forms are available from real estate offices or the Oregon Health Division Drinking Water Program.
Technical assistance is available.
