Free Well Water Testing for Leelanau County

MSU Extension will be offering free well water testing on Monday, July 14, 2008. Here’s how it works:

The screening will test for nitrates, nitrites and triazine pesticides in drinking water. (Testing your water for other things can be done through the Health Dept.)

Stop in at the MSU Extension office (suite #107 at the Leelanau County Government Center) to get your testing bottle and instruction form. Or you may use a clean baby food jar, jelly jar or other small clean jar for your water sample and download a form from the web. (link)

Bring your fresh sample and information sheet back to the MSU-E office on Monday, JULY 14 ONLY before 2pm to get it tested for free! Test results are mailed to residents in approx 6-8 weeks.
