Display of drinking water systems and domestic wells
Service Description
As the operator of a water supply system, you are obliged to register it. Furthermore, as the operator of a building water supply system, you are obliged to register a non-drinking water system operated in the same building.
In order to ensure drinking water quality, the water for drinking water supply must be tested for contamination at regular intervals.
To determine the necessary tests and test intervals, you must notify your responsible health authority of the (re)commissioning, construction, significant structural or operational changes or transfer of ownership of water supply systems.
The public health department will then contact you regarding an on-site inspection.
