Does the water in Maine (well water) require filtering for bugs?

Question:

Dear Rav,
Does the water in Maine (well water) require filtering for bugs?

Answer:

The issue of bugs in the water is specifically for New York City, and other areas that get water from reservoirs, but do not filter their water. Therefore it should not be a problem, unless you have reason to assume otherwise. To learn more about this see R’ Blumenkrantz’s Pesach Digest Chapter 19.

Best wishes
