<p class="MsoNormal"><b><u>PURPOSE<o:p></o:p></u></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This request for proposals (RFP) is intended to increase the capacity of Oregon Local Public Health Authorities (LPHAs) and tribal public health authorities, particularly those that have identified domestic wells and water security as local
priorities through county hazard assessments<b>*</b>. The Oregon Health Authority’s (OHA) Domestic Well Safety Program (DWSP) intends to provide grants to support outreach efforts identified by LPHAs in their proposals to this RFP. In working with LPHAs, the
DWSP will help plan and deliver outreach and interventions to communities of concern, as identified by LPHAs.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><u>BACKGROUND</u></b><br>
There are an estimated 350,000 active wells in Oregon. When this estimate is coupled with Oregon census estimates for household size, it suggests that approximately 23% of the state’s population may be relying on domestic wells. This makes groundwater protection
and domestic well stewardship of critical public health importance.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Large drinking water systems are required by the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Safe Drinking Water Act to submit testing information on a regular basis and meet specific standards for safety. Smaller systems may be regulated by
Oregon statutes (see ORS 448.119) and rules, rather than the Safe Drinking Water Act. However, there are no such requirements for very small drinking water systems and domestic wells, beyond Oregon’s Real Estate Transaction Act (ORS 447.271) that requires
water quality testing during property sales and transfers. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The Oregon Water Resources Department reports that every year 3,800 new exempt-use wells are drilled across the state. These mostly small system or single residence wells are exempt from the water-rights permitting process and regular water
quality testing is not required. Without regulations on permitting and testing, users of these wells are at increased risk for adverse health outcomes stemming from exposure to well water contamination. The purpose of the DWSP is to promote water testing and
hazard mitigation to users of domestic wells in Oregon. <o:p></o:p></p>
