Pennsylvania Groundwater Quality Monitoring Network (GWMN)
Detailed Description
The Groundwater Quality Monitoring Network (GWMN) consists of 28 wells distributed over 26 counties. The Network is divided into four trips: Local, North, Northeast, and West. Samples are collected twice per year and typically analyzed for physical parameters (pH, conductance, temperature, etc.), major and minor ions (both metal and non-metal), and nutrients, organics (other than pesticides or PCBs), and radioactive consituents. Continuous water-level monitoring also occurs at select wells.
