City of Hartford Michigan
Water Protection Plan

What is Well Head Protection and how does it affect our drinking water?
 

Look for this sign at the entrances to the
City of Hartford.

Well Head Protection is the protection of our source of drinking water.  The water underlying the City is the sole source of our drinking water; therefore protecting it will protect public health, maintain economic base and enhance the quality of life and protect a vital natural resource. 

The City of Hartford has partnered with Hartford Public Schools to educate students on the importance of protecting our ground water and distribute items such as pens, pencils, water bottles, t-shirts coffee mugs and hats for the Well Head Protection Program.
