Water Quality
In 1996, the United States Congress amended the Safe Drinking Water Act requiring water providers to deliver an annual Water Quality Report to their consumers. The report is intended to provide you, the consumer, with information regarding the quality of your drinking water and to illustrate some of the challenges faced in delivering safe drinking water. The Virgin Valley Water District is committed to keeping its consumers informed; you are encouraged to read these reports in their entirety. Informed consumers are more likely to help protect their drinking water supplies and understand the true costs associated with providing the water they depend on.
