Sodium hypochlorite (chlorine) is used for disinfection prior to treated water entering the distribution system. A chlorine contact chamber is used to ensure disinfection of the water. 3
An elevated water storage tank with an operating capacity of 2840 m is available for peak hour water demand equalization as well as fire and emergency storage. Both wells are equipped with on-line chlorine residual analyzers and turbidity analyzers that continually monitor the treated water quality. Fluoridation is not carried out at the Freelton community wells. List all water treatment chemicals used over this reporting period.
