Where the water comes from
Uriah Heeps Spring Water System's main water source is groundwater (wells). It buys treated water from Whiterocks Water System. The seller treats the water, including corrosion control that keeps lead from dissolving out of pipes, while Uriah Heeps Spring Water System is responsible for its own service line inventory and replacement program. It sells water to 3 other water systems: Johnson Water District, Ballard Water Improvement District, Ouray Park Water Improvement District.
