Our customers are fortunate to have one of the finest sources of water in the nation, the Rocky Mountains. Nearly 75 percent of our water comes directly from snowmelt near the Continental Divide, making our customers primarily first-time users of the water.
Being first-time users means that the water has not been previously treated, consumed and recycled for use; therefore, it is free of many chemicals and pollutants.
