The City of
Sanford's goal has been to produce the safest and highest
quality drinking water for all its customers. We are
proud of our history of quality service. To maintain
our commitment to you, our analysts routinely collect
and test water samples every step of the way - from
the source waters right to your home - checking purity
and identifying potential problems. Our treatment plants
are constantly maintained, evaluated, and upgraded to
stay abreast of advancements in technology, health science
and government regulations. Our water quality lab is
the heart of our quality assurance program. Staffed
by highly trained technicians, the state-certified laboratory
has the latest, most sophisticated instruments, and
can measure substances down to one part in a billion!
Through foresight and planning, efficiency in operations,
and focus on excellence in customer service, we will
provide you the best quality drinking water at an economical
price well into the 21st century.
Community Participation: You are invited
to participate in our public forum and voice your concerns
about your drinking water. The City of Sanford Council
meets the 1st Tuesday at 1pm and 3rd Tuesday at 7pm
of each month at City Hall, 225 East Weatherspoon Street,
Sanford, NC.
Special Health Information: Some people
may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking water
than the general population. Immunocompromised persons
such as persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy,
persons who have undergone organ transplants, people
with HIV/AIDS or other immune system disorders, some
elderly, and infants may be particularly at risk from
infections. These people should seek advice about drinking
water from their health care providers. EPA/CDC (Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention) guidelines on appropriate
means to lessen the risk of infection by Cryptosporidium
and other microbial contaminants are available from
the Safe Drinking Water Hotline, 1-800-426-4791.
