Water from Barren River is pumped into the water plant through a screen to remove plant debris and fish.
At the flash mix, treatment chemicals are added to clump small particles together and remove contaminants.
Flocculation, the clumping together of particles called "floc", takes place in the sedimentation tank.
The cleaner settled water is sent to filters which remove fine particles which were not removed during sedimentation.
Filtered water is chlorinated and sent to the clearwell where disease causing bacteria are destroyed.
Pumps are used to deliver clean drinking water to the water storage tanks and to your home.
