We understand that customers are concerned about the diesel spill that occurred at Four Mile Branch Creek earlier this week. We want all customers to know that the location and creek impacted in no way threaten the drinking water resources managed by Spartanburg Water. The spill occurred miles below our reservoirs and treatment plant. Our community should remain confident in the safety and integrity of their drinking water. Thank you as always for your continued support and concern.
Each year, unused and expired medications are tossed in the trash or flushed down the toilet. Both of these options can negatively impact our environment and cause concerns for wastewater treatment.
This is why Spartanburg Water supports the Deterra drug disposal system to help our community properly dispose of their unused and expired medications.
Using the Deterra © Pouch, medications can be permanently deactivated and safely disposed of in the trash.
