在2025年夏季水问题中,爱荷华州为居民免费推出硝酸盐检测方案。 Iowa launches free nitrate testing program for residents amid summer 2025 water concerns.

爱荷华州启动了硝酸盐观察方案,向居民提供免费测试工具包,以监测当地水源中的硝酸盐含量,特别是因为2025年夏季某些地区的硝酸盐含量升高,导致用水限制。 Iowa has launched the Nitrate Watch Program, offering free test kits to residents to monitor nitrate levels in local water sources, particularly in response to elevated levels that prompted water use restrictions in some areas during summer 2025. 该倡议由美国Izaak Walton联盟组织,使志愿人员能够使用简单的条纹测试硝酸盐、磷酸盐、溶解氧和氯化物,并通过清洁水枢纽分享结果。 Organized by the Izaak Walton League of America, the initiative enables volunteers to test for nitrates, phosphates, dissolved oxygen, and chloride using simple strips, with results shared via the Clean Water Hub. 这项努力支持公民科学,并旨在改善公众的认识和数据收集,特别是针对不受标准经济伙伴关系协定监测的私人健康用户。 The effort supports citizen science and aims to improve public awareness and data collection, especially for private well users not covered by standard EPA monitoring.
