Did you know you can survive about a month without food, but only 5 to 7 days without water and each person uses about 100 gallons of water a day at home? Yet few of us stop to think about where that water comes from or how it is made safe for human use. BGMU operates your local water treatment facilities. BGMU takes water from the Barren River and turns it into safe drinking water. BGMU also cleans wastewater before placing the water back into the Barren River. To learn about how this process takes place and more about water in general, please see The Story of Water   BGMU Kids 801 Center Street P.O.
