Currently the City of Valley Center purchases water from the City of Wichita. The City has one pressure booster station and a second connection on Seneca to control flow into the City water tower. The benefits to the citizens of Valley Center are softer water with less scaling properties and an increase of 10-15 pounds of water pressure can be expected.
Identifying Your Interior Plumbing
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recently announced changes to drinking water regulations which now requires water suppliers to identify all materials used in the construction of water distribution systems nationwide.
The Kansas Department of Health and Environment (KDHE) is requiring public water supply systems to submit this information before October 16, 2024. Because this task is so monumental, we are requesting your assistance in collecting the needed information.
The City of Valley Center, as the water supplier, must identify all construction materials used on both our side and the consumer side of the water meter, which means that we need your help!
Please respond to this brief survey regarding your interior plumbing materials.
Interior Plumbing Survey
A safe, reliable water supply is critical to the success of any community. It creates jobs, attracts industry and investment, and provides for the health and welfare of citizens in ways ranging from disease prevention to fire suppression. We often take water supply for granted until it is threatened, either by drought, water main breaks, or some other event.
