Abstract

Ensuring good quality drinking water for Minnesota households through private wells requires both quantitative and qualitative analysis. Throughout this graduate assistantship (Summer 2022 and Spring 2023), we compiled existing information from Minnesota Well Owners Organization (MNWOO), with existing data sources such as American Community Survey to better understand water quality and access measures throughout the state. With this data, we were able to identify how MNWOO can better incentivize drinking water improvements in Minnesota households and incentivise people to improve their drinking water sources.

Description

Two main products were developed in this process. The first product entails analysis and description of qualitative information (such as: i. incentives to promote private well owner’s participation, ii. Training manual for clinics, iii. value proposition design manual, and iv. increasing influence across the state). The second product includes development and analysis of quantitative information (such as i. assessment and GIS mapping of socio-economic profiles, and ii. R package for data analysis).
