Nitrate-Nitrogen Conditions in Private Wells Township Testing Results, Minnesota

This resource presents the final testing results by township. The initial results include data from all wells initially tested regardless of well construction or nitrogen source. Final results are determined using two rounds of sampling and a process to remove wells with construction concerns, insufficient construction information and those near potential non-fertilizer sources of nitrate. In many cases wells have been removed from the final dataset because homeowners didn’t participate in the second round of testing. Final results represent wells that are potentially impacted by a fertilizer source. MDA considers <20 wells inadequate to characterize a township for the purposes of the NFMP and is denoted with <20 wells instead of a percentage.<br/><br/>Follow the links below to the individual metadata pages for each layer:<br/><br/><b>Initial Nitrate Township Testing Results</b>: <a href="https://resources.gisdata.mn.gov/pub/gdrs/data/pub/us_mn_state_mda/env_nitrate_well_test/metadata/Initial Nitrate Township Testing Results.html">Initial Nitrate Township Testing Results.html</a><br /><br/><b>Final Nitrate Township Testing Results</b>: <a href="https://resources.gisdata.mn.gov/pub/gdrs/data/pub/us_mn_state_mda/env_nitrate_well_test/metadata/Final Nitrate Township Testing Results.html">Final Nitrate Township Testing Results.html</a><br/>
