Description:
Construction of this new drinking water treatment facility was initiated at the Deaconess well site located off Old Road to Nine Acre Corner. This project has resulted in the reduction of iron and manganese, naturally occurring constituents that are generally the cause of reported water discoloration, to levels well below drinking water guidelines. This initiative has been in the works for several years and its successful completion represents the single greatest investment in water quality improvement made by the community in decades.
This structure houses water treatment process equipment for both the Deaconess well and White Pond well water, an emergency generator and a small water testing laboratory. As part of this project, a new water transmission main has been constructed, connecting the White Pond well site to the Deaconess well site.
One of the major advantages identified in constructing this single joint treatment facility is the elimination of a need to construct an entirely separate water treatment plant on the White Pond well property.
