There is a small town near here that has had a free flowing well that just runs out the ground for as long as anyone can remember. People come from miles away to put this water in jugs and take it home because it taste so good.
The city tapped into this water to use in the city water system. After years of great clean water I saw in the news the other day that the state is stepping in and forcing the city to add chlorine and other chemicals to their water because that is the law.
This town has never failed a water quality test; In fact their untreated water consistently test better than the treated water from other towns in the area. This just does not make sense to me. I live by the fact that if it is not broke why are you trying to fix it.
We live in the country and have all our lives. We drink well water and eat what we grow in our own yards. This is just as bad as a guy that buys 3 acres on a newly closed and subdivide dairy farm so he can move to the country; but then forms a neighborhood committee to complain about the smell from the other dairy farms in the area. Thanks for allowing me to rant.
