Clean drinking water is a crucial natural resource for our basic survival, tying human health to the health of our waters. In this #StaffSpotlight episode, learn about source water protection in New York State from Noreen Gallagher, NEIWPCC Environmental Analyst and New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) Drinking Water Specialist.
To ensure that the water flowing from your faucet is safe to consume, Noreen works with local stakeholders to understand where drinking water comes from and what contaminants threaten these water sources. She accomplishes this by implementing source water and drinking water assessments, protection plans, sampling, and treatment programs.
