The city got the same results from a 2011 test.

From the latest post on Woodbury's website:

We are proud to report that no contaminants were detected at levels that violated state and federal drinking water standards.

The news comes on the heels of reports that wells elsewhere in Washington County are in need of filters.

Under the federal Safe Drinking Water Act, Woodbury is required to report the results of monitoring done on city drinking water each year.

The purpose of this report is to "advance consumers’ understanding of drinking water and heighten awareness of the need to protect precious water resources," according to the note on the city's website.
