Tap Water

Is our tap water safe?

BWL drinking water meets or exceeds every State and Federal regulation of the Safe Drinking Water Act. To learn more about BWL drinking water click here for our Annual Water Quality Report.

What is the hardness of our water?

BWL drinking water is softened to remove approximately 85% of the hardness. The remaining hardness is approximately 98 milligram per liter (mg/L) or 5.7 grains per gallon (gpg). Our hardness target is consistent through the year but may be higher during the summer months due to high water demands and harder water wells being used.
