Triage Validates

MGS's Triage project working with the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy (EGLE) Drinking Water and Environmental Health Division (DWEHD) has recently made a major accomplishment. Since 2019, research assistants on the project have manually validated the information and locations of water wells in the state's Wellogic database as well as entered missing water well information from historical scanned records. This summer, the team officially hit the milestone of validating over 1 million well records. Ensuring these records are entered and verified provides an accurate and reliable source of groundwater and geologic information for the state of Michigan.
