U.S. Forest Service

The Forest Service serves as a steward of groundwater resources together with local communities, states, and other partners. Our goal is to maintain and enhance groundwater fed streams, springs, wells, and wetlands, which supply healthy watersheds and communities with much-needed water. 

Within healthy watersheds, groundwater-dependent ecosystems contain a whole new world of unique plants and animals. These features, from caves and subsurface streams to fens and springs, contain amazing and unique plants and animals that depend on water beneath the surface.

The new site includes a section with information on groundwater recreation sites. There is also information on groundwater educational resources provided by the Forest Service.
