Details: SUMMARY: Sit Consultation. DETAILS: Did a walk / drive through of the entire water system(springs, pump house with chlorinator, reservoir, and tank house) with the system operator and discussed way to secure it effectively ACTION NEEDED: That they install locks at the gate at the success road to the reservoir. That they install door locks and dead bolts on the door of pressure tank house. They install a mechanism that would lock the concrete latches of both spring boxes so that they would not be able to be removed. That they put a fence around your springs with gated that could be easily secured with a lock. Having a fence around your springs will make it harder for not only humans to get in their spring boxes, but also animals which frequent around the spring box lids ( as is evident by the numerous droppings which are visible on top of the spring boxes).
