Nebraska: 20% of Nebraska's population depends on private wells


While municipal wells are regulated by state and federal standards, private wells are not. Owners of a private water supply are responsible for ensuring that their water supply is safe.
The most common contaminants found in private wells are bacteria and nitrate. The only way to know if your water contains harmful bacteria or high levels of nitrate is to have it tested.
Bacteria in drinking water can be hazardous to human and animal health. Sources of bacterial pollution include runoff from feedlots, pastures and other land areas where animal wastes are deposited, and the discharge from septic tanks and sewage treatment facilities. Human and domestic animal wastes are primary sources of bacteria found in water.
The bacterial safety of drinking water is checked by testing for coliform bacteria, which are commonly associated with human and livestock waste. By observing coliform bacteria, the increase and decrease of other disease-causing bacteria also can be estimated. The coliform bacteria may not necessarily produce disease, but can indicate the presence of other bacteria, which may cause infections, hepatitis, typhoid fever and other illnesses. Nitrate-nitrogen is a basic part of the environment and is essential for living things. It is the nutrient most used for crop production
