My town water is unchlorinated untreated water off some sort of of alpine glacier. They test the heck out of it for organics weekly and it's always come up good. People drive here from miles around to fill their drinking water containers. And one bottled water company uses town water as their source.
However, there are alot of mines around here -- a federal superfund site about 3 miles below town, and according to some people, alot more that should be. I wonder how much heavy metals are leached into the drinking water -- most of the mines are below the source, but I don't know if ALL of them are. It would be interesting to send a sample in for testing. Z On 5/30/07, Kirk McLoren <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
