It is important to have your drinking water tested even if you think you have adequate filtration and a UV sanitizer. Drinking water from the lake or well system can be tested for free in the area. Spring testing is critical due to the spring melt and run off. There used to be sample bottles available in Coboconk and at the Minden Library but you now have to go into Halliburton or Lindsey to pick up the kits due to COVID shutdowns.
You can still drop off water sample in Minden at the library on Thursdays and Coboconk on Tuesdays and Wednesdays but the drop off times are limited.
For more up to date info and times, visit the help centre site for updates.
