The Texas Well Owner Network will host a “Well Informed” water well screening Feb. 2-3 in Palestine to give area residents the opportunity to have their well water screened. Residents wanting to have their well water screened should pick up a sample bag, bottle and instructions from the AgriLife Extension office for Anderson County at 101 E. Oak St. in Palestine prior to Feb. 2, said John Smith, AgriLife Extension program specialist, Bryan-College Station.
The “Well Informed” water sample drop-off will be Feb. 2 from 8:30-10 a.m. at the Anderson County Annex, 703 N. Mallard St., Room 103A, Palestine. The cost for each sample is $10.
A meeting to explain screening results will be Feb. 3 at 5:30 p.m. at the same location.
