Monitoring and product recovery wells require annual registration. Dakota County will send a letter to the well owner requesting completion of the Annual Registered Use Well Permit 14 months after the well is completed.

Beginning with 2017 applications for an annual registered well permit, the static water level measurements for registered wells are required to be submitted in electronic format. Allowed formats are described in the

Water Chemistry Electronic Data Transfer Format
Submit all water quality data collected since the last annual submittal in an Environmental Quality Information System (EQuIS) format.
Lab_MN is one of many EQuIS formats the county accepts. This is a commonly used EQuIS format. It allows laboratories to submit analytical data to the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA). To learn more information about this format and get supporting files, please visit the MPCA's EQuIS webpage.
