2007

The source for the Valley Field water supply is two bedrock wells and a pump station.  Well # 1 is located 300 feet south of the pump house.  Well # 3 is located 492 feet southwest of the pump house.  Treatment consist of manganese green sand filtration to remove iron and manganese, aeration to remove radon, and chlorine addition to kill bacteria.
