Every water supply shall be constructed or materially

to contamination by reason of unsatisfactory location, protection,

the requirements of this Part 2. No such water supply shall be constructed
without the approval of plans and specifications by the Board of Health
or without a written permit from the Board of Health.
No person shall pollute or permit to be polluted
any spring, well, cistern, reservoir or other source of domestic or
potable water supply or any surface waters which drain into any such
source of water.
Every well or spring shall be located and constructed
in such manner that neither underground nor surface contamination
from any source of pollution can affect such water supply.
No person shall use or make available for the
use of any other person for drinking, bathing, culinary purposes,
cleaning of utensils or other domestic or potable purposes any water
unless the same shall be of a quality safe for the use to which the
same is intended to be put and unless said water shall fully meet
the standards of quality for such purposes as fixed by the State Board
of Health.
Whenever the Board of Health shall have satisfactory evidence that any spring, well or cistern or other source of water, the water of which is used for domestic or potable purposes or for any of the purposes set forth in § 250-60, has become polluted or rendered unsafe for the use to which the same is being put or is intended to be put, written notice to discontinue the use of said water and the well, cistern or other sources may be sent to the owner, agent or person in charge of said spring, well or cistern or other sources of water, and such owner, agent or person shall forthwith, on receipt of such notice, close said spring, well or cistern or other source and discontinue and cause the discontinuance of the use of said water until the cause of the pollution has been abated and until said water shall be rendered safe and of the quality provided for in § 250-60.
