This week is National Drinking Water Week!
The Ray Roberts Water Treatment Plant maintenance team recently drained the Flocculation and Sedimentation Basins for regular cleaning and inspection. The basins collect dirt that settles at the bottom after coagulating with ferric sulfate—one step in the overall treatment of the water.
It's worth noting that recently Water Utilities competed in a water taste test at TXAWWA's annual conference. The Lake Lewisville Water Treatment Plant took second, and the Lake Ray Roberts Water Treatment Plant took third!
We want to shout out our maintenance team at Ray Roberts and those across the City that make sure Denton has safe drinking water!
