IMU owns and operates four deep water wells that pump an average of 1.2 million gallons of raw water per day. The water is locally treated using a lime softening process which reduces the natural hardness to 100-120 parts per million, or 5.8-7 grains per gallon. The plant is designed to treat 3.3 million gallons a day and is currently at approximately one third of that capacity.
