    ORIGIN OF OUR WATER

    Your drinking water originates from two sources.

    The primary source of water is from Walborn and Deer Creek Reservoirs.

    When full, the reservoirs hold 2.85 billion gallons of raw water.

    Deer Creek was dedicated on October 25, 1954, to supply raw water to the Alliance Water Treatment Plant.

    The raw water is drawn off from a multi-level intake structure on Deer Creek Reservoir to the treatment plant located on North Rockhill Avenue.

    The Water Treatment Plant was put into operation July, 1993. Current treatment includes: Aeration, chlorine dioxide, potassium permanganate oxidation, powdered activated carbon adsorption, alum coagulation, solids contact clarification, dual media filtration with granular active carbon, stability adjustment, disinfection and fluoridation.

    The secondary source of water is from the Mahoning river. This source was not used in 2000 or 2001.
