Nitrate Pollution
Nitrate is a widespread contaminant of ground and surface waters worldwide. The accumulation of nitrate in the environment results mainly from:

• non-point source runoff from the over-application of nitrogen fertilizers
• point-sources such as Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations (CAFOs see http://www.lpes.org/CAFO.html, http://epa.gov/guide/cafo, &  http://www.factoryfarm.org)
• point-sources from poorly or untreated human sewage

In addition, nitrate-containing wastes are produced by many industrial processes, including paper and munitions manufacturing. In addition, burning fossil fuels in power plants and cars, SUVs and all internal combustion engines results in the production of nitric acid and ammonia as air pollution.

Citizen Monitoring Nitrate Test Kits (CM-NTK) and
Environmental Field Nitrate Test Kits (E-NTK)

Great for All Environmental Nitrate Testers

• Easy to Use - Few steps to get results

• Accurate, reliable, inexpensive and safe

• Self-contained Kit -- Everything provided

• CM-NTK and E-NTK both use a natural process for nitrate testing and are sustainable products!

Citizen Monitoring of Local Waters:
The US EPA and many states sponsor programs for citizens to get involved with monitoring water quality in their community.  The people participating in these programs are often called Citizen Monitors.

Use the CM-NTK nitrate field test kit for citizen monitoring.
Low Range Nitrate from 0.05 to 2.0 ppm Nitrate-N _____________________________________________________________

Use the E-NTK nitrate field test kit for environmental testing for EPA compliance.
E-NTK Series Standard Range = 0.5 to 10 ppm Nitrate-N

E-NTK can also be used to test for safe, potable water.
