However, the Department of Water Resources could do just that as regulations state homes within 180 feet of a public water system must hook up to it.
"Right now the cost to connect for individual property owners with wells would include the cost of running the pipe as well as the cost of buying water rights," said Burris.
"If we get the proposed funding, those homes and properties would have the opportunity to be connected for free and their wells would be sealed for free. That's a savings of many thousands of dollars."
The Nevada Department of Environmental Protection has similar programs for connecting to the sewer line, and Burris said he would be willing to approach the agencies involved to negotiate favorable deals, although he couldn't guarantee anything at this time.
"If wells are not in service on properties, they will be capped and (the property) connected to the system under the infrastructure plan using federal funds," Burris said.
