The Douglas County Land and Water Resource Management Plan was created with the "intent of the plan is to foster local water quality planning and increase public participation in natural resource management." In 2018 more than 150 private wells were sampled around the county.

Testing your well is very important, according to the CDC, "test it once each year for total coliform bacteria, nitrates, total dissolved solids, and pH levels. If you suspect other contaminants, you should test for those as well."
