Celebrating #NationalWaterQualityMonth reminds us to be thankful for the easy access we have to safe, clean water. There are easily thousands of factors that can have a negative effect on the quality of local water sources ranging from industrial pollutants like metal particulate, oils, and other chemicals to the pesticides we use in our own backyards. Thank you to all who contribute to developing high-quality water in #SantaClaritaValley!
