FROM OUR SOURCE TO YOUR TAP...
Hampden Water District is please to be able to work in collaboration with the Bangor Water District to provide our customers with some of the best water in the state. Floods Pond in Otis has been the Hampden Water District’s primary source of water since 1972. The Floods Pond watershed covers approximately 5,632 acres (8.8 square miles) of pristine wilderness. Because of this pristine watershed, and the high water quality, minimal treatment is needed. A filtration waiver has been issued by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Water from Floods Pond is disinfected using ozone and ultraviolet light. Long-term disinfection is maintained by the addition of chloramines. Alkalinity and pH adjustment and the addition of a small amount of fluoride for dental health are the only treatment processes applied. Upon entry by means of two interconnects with Bangor Water District, additional treatment, including pH & alkalinity adjustment, as well as additional disinfection is applied, then water is dispersed throughout our system.
Public Health—monitoring for contaminants, while following through with regulations ensures our customers can drink safely from the tap. Fire Protection–providing adequate fire protection and protecting the town center, in addition to providing ALL business and residential structures in Hampden protection from eminent threat of fire, and increases the Town of Hampden’s Insurance Rating from the ISO, which is reflective of lower insurance rates throughout the community. Infrastructure—maintaining miles of water line, fire hydrants, standpipes, pump stations & treatment facilities. Economic Development—The quantity, quality and cost of public water and fire protection influence a companies decision on locating or expanding a business into the town of Hampden.
