What is the source of my drinking water?
The source of the Ministerial water supply is two wells and a pump station located on Faye Lane in Derry, NH.  Well # 1 is located 550 feet northwest of the pump house.  Well # 2 is located 610 feet northwest of the pump house.  Treatment consists of chlorine addition to kill bacteria, aeration to remove radon from the water, and oxidation/filtration to remove iron and manganese (installed 3/5/08).
