About Us
What should residents expect to find in their municipal water? As water moves across land surfaces or through soil layers, it naturally dissolves minerals and occasionally radioactive materials. It may also collect substances from human activities or animal presence. Common contaminants in source water include:
- Microbial contaminants: Including viruses and bacteria from septic systems, agricultural operations, and wildlife
- Inorganic contaminants: Such as salts and metals that occur naturally or result from wastewater discharge and agricultural practices
- Pesticides and Herbicides: Primarily from agricultural runoff and residential usage
- Organic chemical contaminants: Including synthetic and volatile compounds from improper disposal of household chemicals and septic system leakage
- Radioactive contaminants: Which can occur naturally in certain geological formations
Who makes decisions about our water? Our City Council oversees water quality decisions. We encourage public participation in community discussions affecting municipal water.
How to get involved: Attend Council meetings held Tuesdays at 7:00 p.m. in City Hall Council Chambers (6 North Main Street) when water-related issues are on the agenda. The Saturday edition of our local newspaper publishes notices of these meetings.
Health Information: The EPA establishes regulations limiting contaminant levels in municipal water to ensure it's both palatable and safe to drink. Similarly, the FDA regulates bottled water industry standards to provide equal public protection. All water sources, including bottled water, may contain small amounts of contaminants, though their presence doesn't necessarily indicate a health risk.
Some individuals may be more vulnerable to water contaminants than the general population. People with compromised immune systems—such as cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy, organ transplant recipients, those with HIV/AIDS, or other immune disorders—may face increased infection risks. Elderly residents and infants may also be more susceptible. These individuals should seek advice from healthcare providers regarding their water consumption.
