The City of Currie has the opportunity to apply for grant funding from the Minnesota Department of Health to seal any unused, abandoned wells in the area.
A well that you no longer use (unused well) can be a pathway for contaminants to get into groundwater and is a safety hazard. You are responsible for getting unused wells on your property sealed. Only a licensed well contractor can legally seal wells.
The city is eligible to apply for grant funding and it could offer up to 100% of the cost to seal the well if it meets grant guidelines. Contact Annette at the City Office at 507-763-1540 for more info.
