Private Well Testing for PFAS

The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) continues to sample private residential wells, municipal wells, and non-community public wells (e.g., small businesses, churches, schools) in the east metro area for per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). The testing is done at no cost to the property owner.

Numerous private wells located throughout Afton have been tested for PFAS. The areas where some wells have received a health advisory is in the Old Village and north central and northeast portion of the City. Wells tested in other areas of the City have shown no or low levels of PFAS.
