Platte River Watershed Well Testing Program
Spring 2008
The Friends of the Platte River in collaboration with Southwest Badger RC&D, and UW-Extension sponsored a well water testing program in the spring of 2008. Funding for the well testing program was provided in part by a Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources River Planning Grant and a donation from the Grant County Land and Water Conservation Committee. This funding provided participants with a ten dollar discount on the cost of the water testing. Seventy-six households participated in the well testing program. Results of the testing were presented at an educational seminar on May 29, 2008.
