Test kits are to be distributed Aug. 12-16 at Brunswick County Health Services, Building A at the Brunswick County Government Center, 25 Court House Drive NE, in Bolivia.
Samples must be collected and returned between 6 a.m. and 10 a.m. Aug. 20 at Brunswick County Health Services.
There are a limited number of kits, so they will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis, officials said. Detailed sampling instructions will be provided, and water quality results will be emailed and mailed to residents.
Northeastern University will test the samples and provide confidential results.
Residents will also receive a $10 gift card for their participation.
