Water demand for the quarter averaged
approximately 18.6 million gallons per day, which
was similar to the 18.9 million gallons per day
observed during the same period in 2015.
In June, the Town issued its annual water quality report electronically. The
report covers all drinking water quality testing performed in 2015. The
Town is committed to providing drinking water that meets all state and
federal regulatory standards. After performing thousands of water quality
analyses during 2015, we are proud to report that your water remains safe
and of high quality.
Distribution of the annual report is required by law. This is the fourth
consecutive year that the Town has distributed the report electronically.
This results in an annual estimated savings of approximately $20,000 and
provides an efficient way to communicate with our customers.

In May, the Cary/Apex Water Treatment
Facility (CAWTF) was awarded the 2015
Turbidity Optimization Award by the
State's Department of Environmental
Quality. Turbidity removal is an
indicator of treatment plant
performance. The award is given
annually to water treatment facilities
state-wide that meet goals for
achieving higher levels of turbidity
removal in their water treatment
processes throughout the year.
