Water System
 

The Glacier Springs water system is classified as a Group A public water system. It consists of a large capacity, sanitarily developed spring source, two concrete storage tanks and a distribution system pressurized by gravity. The spring and the tanks are located on property owned by the Department of Natural Resources, who leases an easement to the Association.

   
 

New Water Tank in Service - On 10/15/04 the Washington State Department of Health (DOH) gave it's final approval on the new 49,900 gallon water tank. This was the final step in this important upgrade to our water system and the tank is now in service.

  Water Meter Installations - With the installation of the new water tank, the DOH mandated that the Association install individual water meters on new and existing homes/cabins. This will be used to gauge "beneficial use" within the water system
and will not be used for billing. At the AGM on October 29, 2005, Rick Benson, Glacier Springs water operator showed property owners how to turn off the new connection. Please refer to the documents below for more information or contact Rick Benson directly.
