NDSU Extension is celebrating its 100th anniversary with events on campus May 8 and at county offices this spring.

People need to start watching for blue-green algae on pond and lakes now.

NDSU Extension offers advice on protecting water wells from flooding.

Cyanobacteria, also known as blue-green algae, can produce toxins that are harmful to livestock, wildlife and people.

Nutrients from livestock manure can harm water quality and have other negative environmental impacts.

Farms and ranches may be required to have a plan to store, clean up and mitigate oil spills.

Consider protecting your well if it's in a flood-prone area.

Allowing containment ponds to overflow is a violation of animal feeding operations permits.

Now is the time to get your septic system ready for winter.

Bacteria cause the pink or red substance you may find in your toilet bowl, sink, bathtub or shower stall.
