The Bangor district is divided into the Bangor main system, and the West Bangor system. SOURCE OF SUPPLY Supply to the Bangor main system is from multiple sources that flow to the Bangor Treatment plant prior to entering the distribution system. The treatment plant receives raw water from the 0.92 MG Lower Handelong Reservoir which is located adjacent to the plant and acts as a collecting basin for multiple raw water sources. The West Fork of Martin’s Creek flows into the Lower Handelong Reservoir, along with the Handelong Well #2 which pumps directly into the Lower Handelong Reservoir. Additionally, the Stofflet Well, Joseph Handelong Wells 1&2 and the Labar Well are all located offsite and are piped in a common pipeline to the Lower Handelong Reservoir. The Pritchard Well, the Getz Wells 1 and 2, the Oxford Reservoir and the Smith Reservoir are all located offsite and piped directly to the treatment plant in a common pipeline or can also be diverted to the Lower Handelong Reservoir if needed. Supply to the West Bangor service system is from six wells located just northwest of the village of West Bangor. The six (6) wells have a total permitted capacity of 0.289 MGD. The North Garibaldi Booster Station facilitates the transfer of water from the Bangor main service system into the West Bangor service system. This pump station will supplement the supply from the West Bangor wells when delivery from the wells is inadequate to meet system demands. TREATMENT The Bangor system is served by two (2) separate treatment plants, the Bangor Treatment plant and the West Bangor treatment plant. The Bangor Treatment Plant is located along Route 191 in Upper Mt. Bethel Township and has a reliable treatment capacity of 2.5 M.G.D. Raw water is transported from the Lower Handelong reservoir to the plant via 10" and 12” mains. Plant influent flow is measured and then chlorine, caustic soda, liquid alum, and a liquid polymer are all added prior to filtration. Treated water then flows into three (3) multi-media filter units designed to filter at a maximum rate of 3.2 million gallons per day.
