GREAT BARRINGTON â Housatonic Water Works Co. is proposing a new filtration system that consultants say will rid the network of discolored-water episodes that, for years, have plagued its customers.
In a March 29 statement on its website, the company says it plans to install an âultrafiltration membrane treatment systemâ that would address high levels of naturally occurring manganese at Long Pond, the water source.
The decision to purchase and install the $1.7 million system came after consultant Lenard Engineering studied a number of technologies that remove manganese and said this product from Koch Separations Solutions would be most effective for the cost.
