(Ozone Equipment at the IHGID Water Treatment Plant)
|
Simply explained, ozone is injected to a stream of water. The color-causing organics in the well water are chemically changed by the ozone and then both ozone and the former color-causing organics are removed. Before the water leaves the treatment plant, it then is run through the specific filters and the arsenic is removed to below the new, federally mandated levels.
The District welcomes requests by residents to visit the Water Treatment Plant and watch the ozone system in operation. If you have a spare minute and are interested, contact the Water Treatment Plant at (775) 267-9860 and staff will try to accommodate your schedule and arrange a visit to see operation of the ozone equipment.

As of Monday October 3, 2011 we are receiving water through the new pipeline coming from the Town of Minden/ Douglas County and tying into IHGID. Water is flowing from the Town of Minden. After one week we expect to totally be off of Browns Well water as our current water storage is replaced with Minden Water. We will be pumping approximately 1400 gallons per minute from Minden with an arsenic level of approximately 0.008 mg/l. The federal standard for arsenic is 0.010 mg/l. We will pump approximately 250-350 million gallons of water annually from Minden. We will average 900,000 gallons per day based on being able to take some water from our existing wells that are good water producers and blending with Minden water. This is a project that has been in development since before 2008 in an effort to deliver better quality water to our customers.
