Taste of Water Varies in City
Water in Childress tastes uneven due to different sources. Michie Sand Hills water yields about 650000 gallons daily and is excellent, while the 62 well produces about 216000 gallons daily and is released into the mains twice weekly from a 1000000 gallon reservoir near the well, cutting Baylor Lake supply and causing taste changes. Rationing lowers daily use to about 2300000 gallons. city manager Louis Jr notes consumption would rise without rationing. A pump on a Michie Sandhills well has been repaired and is back in operation.
