Water systems report
The most recent Confederated Tribes of Warm
Springs Annual Consumer Confidence Report for
the water treatment plant, and three tribal water sys-
tems, is now available. This is the annual required
report of the federal Safe Drinking Water Act.
The reports are posted publicly at the Macy’s Mar-
ket, the Post Office, and at the administration build-
ing.
Warm Springs Utilities reminds community
members to please conserve water. Do not leave
water running and limit lawn and garden watering to
ensure adequate water levels are maintained in
reservoirs. Water conservation is something we
can all remain focused on throughout this summer,
as something we can do to help the community.
