Protect Your Drinking Water
Why Drinking Water Protection Matters
-
Health: Contaminated drinking water can make people sick. Preventing pollution is far easier—and safer—than cleaning it up after the fact.
-
Community: A single spill or leak can affect thousands of people who rely on the same water source. Protecting water helps keep entire communities safe.
Source Water Protection is about preventing problems before they reach the tap.
