Drinking Water Source Assessment
In accordance with the federal Safe Drinking Water Act, an
assessment of the drinking water sources for the City of Glendora
was completed in December 2001. The purpose of the drinking
water source assessment is to promote source water protection by
identifying types of activities in the proximity of the drinking water
sources which could pose a threat to the water quality.
The assessment concluded that City of Glendora’s groundwater
wells are considered most vulnerable to the following activities or
facilities associated with contaminants detected in the water
supply: crops irrigation, fertilizer, pesticide/herbicide application,
and known contaminant plumes.
In addition, the groundwater wells are considered most vulnerable
to the following facilities not associated with contaminants
detected in the water supply: utility stations maintenance areas,
above ground storage tanks, and areas with more than 1 house
per one-half acre.

Precautions the Public Should Consider
Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking
water than the general population. Immuno-compromised individuals
such as persons with cancer undergoing organ transplants, people
with HIV/AIDS or other immune system disorders, some elderly, and
infants can be particularly at risk from infections. These people should
seek advice about drinking water form their health care providers.
USEPA/Centers for Disease Control (CDC) guidelines on appropriate
means to lessen the risk of infection by Cryptosporidium and other
microbial contaminants are available from the Safe Drinking Water
