Some customers have asked the District about using a water filter in their home to remove PFAS. While we can make no specific recommendations, we rely on the EPA guidance for such PFAS information.
Please visit the EPA's Fact Sheet on removing PFAS with a home filter.
The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment compiles the water testing data from labs to produce a report for each public water system. They send this report to public water systems each year and require them to publish it for their customers. The SRWD report covering data for calendar year 2023 was delivered to us this week. We publish this report in the Summit Daily Legal Section, tape it to our office window, and create a web page for our website.

The Snake River Water District (District) notified customers in September, via mailer, that PFAS compounds were found in drinking water during mandatory testing completed earlier in 2023. If you are a customer of SRWD, and you did not receive a notification, please contact Scott Price at (970) 468-0328.
The District has moved forward with additional voluntary testing. Additional sampling will be completed throughout 2024 and the District’s website will be used for updates as information becomes available.
Population growth, changing regulations, and aging infrastructure are continual challenges for providing drinking water to our region. The District is committed to being proactive to address these issues and provide reliable, uninterrupted service to our customers.
