Sec. 1.5.
It has been established that there is an ever increasing shortage of
water in this State and that improperly installed water wells, pumps and
related equipment can endanger the public health. Consistent with its duty
to protect the public health and welfare of this State, and to insure the
development of the natural resource of underground water in an orderly and
sanitary manner, the General Assembly hereby declares that the licensing of
Water Well Contractors and Water Well Pump Installation Contractors is
essential to the protection of the public health.
