ACD is a partner with MNDNR to track groundwater levels in Anoka County. The MNDNR maintains a network of groundwater observation wells across the state. These deep groundwater wells are not as sensitive to precipitation as other hydrologic systems such as wetlands and streams, but rather, respond to longer term trends. ACD is contracted to take quarterly water level readings at 14 wells in Anoka County. The MNDNR incorporates these data into a statewide database that aids in groundwater mapping.
The data are reported by the MNDNR on their web site. To see the locations of the monitoring sites, use the mapping utility and check the "monitor sites" box.
