Safe water is goal of city superintendent
City officials stress preventing contamination through backflow prevention devices on direct connections. The water system is treated by chlorination, with rerouting during breaks and tablets added after repairs to ensure potability. Residents are urged to cooperate and report cross connections or backflow, aiming to educate rather than harass and to keep water meeting health standards.
