On June 12th from 6:00 pm to 7:00 pm, Waushara County’s UW-Madison Extension office will offer information to homeowners re: their private drinking water wells – why it’s important to know if your drinking water is safe; what tests are available/costs; where you can get testing kits; how to obtain water samples from your faucet; what the test results mean that will be mailed back to you from UW-SP lab, and possible actions you could consider based on the sample results.
Patrick Nehring/Waushara Co. UW-Madison Ext. Agent/Professor and Kevin Masarik/UW-SP Groundwater Education Specialist will discuss these topics and answer questions.
Citizens can obtain testing kits and informational handouts at the event. RSVP – “UW-Ext. office” at courthouse (920) 787-0416, to ensure there are kits and handouts for everyone.
