Environmental Health Inspections & Permits

The State of Michigan program that was offering free well water testing in September 2023 has ended. The $5 million set aside by the state legislature for this program has been used. 

Our Environmental Health office offers low cost drinking water testing. Please contact us by email or by calling 734-222-3800 if we can be of assistance.

We apologize for any inconvenience.
