Learn about the different materials and organisms that are found in raw water and how it is treated to become fit to drink.
On this 90-minute tour, you will follow the steps through the treatment plant and observe chemists and microbiologists as they test the water.

This visit is especially recommended for 5th grade students in conjunction with a classroom presentation, and makes an excellent follow-up activity to the West Sacramento Discovery Voyage.

This is also a great tour for middle, high school, and college level students in chemistry, ecology or public health, and can be adapted to meet specific curriculum needs.
