Where the water comes from
Clay WSC draws water from 1 well.
Annual water quality report
Clay WSC must give its customers an annual water quality report (Consumer Confidence Report) by July 1, with the levels its tests found in the previous year.
Systems serving 500 or fewer people may meet the rule by telling customers the report is available on request, so you may need to ask Clay WSC for a copy.
