The Calumet County Groundwater Guardians and the Calumet County Land & Water Conservation Department are offering a group well testing program for well owners in the Towns of Stockbridge and Charlestown.

The well testing program provides an opportunity for residents to sample their well water for bacteria and nitrates, as well as a suite of metals and other analyses. Prices for tests start at $47 for bacteria and nitrates. Free arsenic testing will be available to the first 120 well owners who sign up for a bacteria test.

Funding for the arsenic tests is provided by the Calumet Groundwater Guardian through a Lakeshore Natural Resource Partnership Stewardship Grant. Bottles are limited and pre-registration is required for the event.

To register, please call the Land & Water Conservation Dept. at 849-1444 ext 5 or stop in the office at the Calumet County Courthouse, 206 Court St., Chilton, between 8 a.m.-4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. Deadline for registration is Friday, March 2. The testing day is scheduled for March 19, 2012. For more information, please call Dani Santry, Calumet County Groundwater Specialist, at 849-1444 ext 5.
