Willshire has established a new ground-water supply system in western Van Wert County to replace an existing degraded and antiquated quarry supply and water plant. The new plant includes two wells feeding the first PWS iron filtration-nanofiltration treatment system in Ohio, brought online in November 1998. Wells were supervised and tested and the WHPA delineation was completed on a fast track and endorsed and a source water protection plan submitted.
“A clean well is a happy well.” Regular cleaning and maintenance head off conditions that cause the authorities to take action against you.
