Adams, MN
Contamination score
Higher = more contaminated vs. other cities.
Adams sits in Mower County, one of the eight southeastern Minnesota karst counties where the EPA formally determined in November 2023 that nitrate contamination of groundwater required state action, ordering Minnesota to protect residents relying on nitrate-affected wells. No violation specific to the Adams municipal system itself was found, but the karst-region nitrate risk is real and well documented, so the score reflects that elevated regional exposure.
