In episode 70, we check in with National Ground Water Association President Jason House. Host Brock Yordy and House cover a lot of territory in this interview, so you don’t want to miss it. In part, they cover NGWA’s role in raising awareness of jobs in groundwater fields. How does drilling capture its portion of people choosing to build and explore, rather than work in an office?
“As it is right now, drillers are 8 months out before they can get to another job,” says House, LG, PG. “We work on a number of sites where we’re sending out bid proposals and we’re getting answers back like, ‘Yeah, we want to bid on this, but we are just swamped. The earliest we can get to it is 6 to 8 months.’ It’s crazy.”
