Drinking Water Protection Survey

How is your drinking water? We want to know!

All Ulysses residents (outside the Village of Trumansburg) will receive a postcard with a link to a Drinking Water Survey. The Town of Ulysses is encouraging everyone to use this survey to describe where they get their water from, and any problems with its’ quantity or quality, such as taste, color, or odor.

Paper copies of the survey are also available at the Town Hall or you can go directly to the online survey at https://arcg.is/1DO1TT0. Responses are STILL BEING ACCEPTED until JAN. 21, 2024.
 
The information will be a critical element in developing a comprehensive Water Source Protection Plan that will ensure sustainable drinking water resources throughout Ulysses in the coming years. A generalized summary of the Survey results will be presented at a Workshop in early 2024, along with useful guidance such as how to protect groundwater wells and filter systems for improving drinking water quality.
 
For more information, you can contact the Ulysses Source Water Protection Plan Committee by emailing Linda Liddle, WSPPC Chair liddlela@verizon.net. More information is available at https://townofulyssesny.gov/boards/wsppc-source-water-protection-committee/
