Ms. Larsen explains water storage in rock crevices with limestone valleys supplying holes up to 600 feet deep, but most aquifers yield at 300 feet. Officials note adequate county water, taste concerns in towns, and daily taste tests by operators. Frederick city relies on Lake Singanore, Monocacy River, and Gambrill Mountain watershed for treatment at Linganore plant.
