Granger - Hunter Improvement District

Source drinking water is water which usually comes from streams, streams, lakes, or a great underground aquifer. Resource water may be used to source public drinking water. A substantial amount of the top quality water GHID provides to you, our client, is water manufactured from groundwater aquifers root the GHID support area. GHID is usually committed to protecting the groundwater aquifer. The drinking water is vulnerable to many different potential causes of contamination, such as: seeping underground storage containers, commercial and home herbicides, pesticides and manures, agricultural run-off, activities in the watershed, home and industrial sewerage, and storm drinking water run-off. An important and effective tool utilized to protect the groundwater aquifer is a Supply Water Protection Strategy. Keeping contaminants out and controlling the utilization of potential contaminants inside the source water region is the front type of protection. Protecting water wells, by eliminating contaminants before they enter the groundwater, equates to potential general public savings; there is much less source water treatment required when contaminates are eliminated and source water is usually protected. What many residents of the community do to help stop potential contamination and thereby preserve the water supply? There are basic things we can do this will go a long way in contamination prevention, including store and deal with chemicals used for cars, homes, and landscapes under manufacturer’s guidelines; apply chemicals and fertilizers at the suggested application rates; and properly dispose of almost all chemicals. Recycling and disposing of unused chemical substances can help reduce the possibility of contamination. There are several places that you may dispose of this kind of waste. The Salt Pond County Landfill, located at 6030 Western 1300 South, includes central waste disposal that accepts chemical waste materials, used petroleum items, antifreeze, pesticides, manures, paint, and comparable materials generated simply by residents are approved. All steps, small or big, will help to preserve the groundwater aquifer coming from contamination. Together, we can make a difference in the top quality of water all of us drink. A Resource Water Protection Strategy exists for each of GHID’s seven water wells. The Source Drinking water Protection Plan and six-year upgrade for each of GHID’s wells may be examined at our office buildings during business several hours.
