The Groundwater Ambient Monitoring and Assessment (GAMA) Program is a comprehensive groundwater quality monitoring program managed by the California State Water Resources Control Board (SWRCB). The goals of the GAMA Domestic Well Project are to provide specific information on water quality to domestic well owners, to provide a public outreach component to aid the public in understanding water quality issues affecting domestic water wells, and to help assess California groundwater quality and identify issues that may impact private domestic well water. The State Water Board works with local county agencies and Regional Water Boards to arrange sampling, which is voluntary and at no cost to the well owner. Results are shared with the well owners and used by GAMA to evaluate the quality of groundwater used by private well owners, which is largely unknown in the State of California. Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory performs specialized analyses of domestic well groundwater for the SWRCB.
