Emerald Coast Utilities Authority issued the following announcement on October 27.
As the last #WaterWednesday of October, and the national campaign to Imagine a Day Without Water comes to a close, it's important for all of us to be aware, engaged, and value our water supply.
If you didn't already know, we are part of the 39% of Americans who rely on groundwater for our drinking water. While we are blessed to enjoy an excellent source of potable water supplied from the prolific and high-quality Sand-and-Gravel aquifer, because this aquifer does not have a confining layer above it, virtually everything that falls on the ground has the potential to affect the quality of our water supply. That's why it's so important to remember to dispose of motor oils, chemicals, and other hazardous waste in an ecologically responsible manner.
Protecting this precious resource is vital and conserving our water helps ensure a sustainable future, and it saves you money at the same time
