North Platte NRD Approves Advisory Group on Nitrogen Management

The North Platte Natural Resources District has been monitoring and recording nitrate
levels in the groundwater from wells located across our District for over 40 years. Over 750
wells are tested on a routine basis and recently those results have shown that nitrate levels in
266 wells within our District are over the threshold of 7.5 parts per million (ppm) and require
additional management controls.
