To help protect the groundwater and our water supply wells from potential
contamination, the City is currently implementing a Wellhead Protection
Plan. The Wellhead Protection Plan focuses on public awareness and education
along with spill prevention and reporting. For more information or to

Household Tips for Protecting
Our Drinking Water Supply:
1. Reduce the amount of fertilizers, pesticides, or other hazardous
chemicals that you use. Buy only what you need so that you don't have to
dispose of leftovers. Read all the labels and follow directions.
2. Use organic lawn and garden alternatives that do not contain synthetic
chemical poisons.
3. Reduce the use of products that contain any of the following words on
their labels: cause, warning, danger, poison, flammable, volatile, caustic
or corrosive.
4. Recycle used oil, automotive fluids, batteries and other products. Don't
dispose of hazardous products in toilets, storm drains, wastewater systems,
creeks, alleys or the ground. This pollutes the water supply.
