Is My Water Safe to Drink?

There's water in comets, in ponds and clouds... and even nearer to home, inside our very being. In taking a closer look at water, in our everyday lives, in our neighborhoods and buildings, let's examine the water we drink, that we consume, that flows and flushes through our lives, connecting us directly -- from the inside out-- to Life.


The EPA has mandated that all drinking water providers give their customers an overview of their drinking water's sources and treatment. The city of Boulder took the requirement as an opportunity to inform us all about what's involved with treating and delivering drinking water to our taps.

Thank You! BASIN was a community project which benefitted from over 1000 hours of public volunteer time. BASIN was highlighted by the US EPA in a national case study in its 2001 handbook Delivering Timely Environmental Information to Your Community. Thank you to all volunteers, and especially to the late Jim Waterman, BASIN Project Coordinator!

BASIN was supported by the US EPA, the City of Boulder, the Keep it Clean Partnership, BCWI and BCN
