Sedgwick County Water Supply
and Wastewater Management Assessment
2004 Executive Summary
The
purpose of this report is to determine the status of
quantities of water supply and wastewater disposal
mechanisms for the cities and unincorporated areas
within Sedgwick County. This assessment is intended to
be used as a planning tool by various local governments,
planners, and developers to help select appropriate
water supplies and wastewater treatment/disposal
technologies, thereby minimizing risks to human health,
water resources, and the economy of Sedgwick County.
Across the United States, nearly 3000 conservation
districts -- almost one in every county -- are helping
local people conserve land, water, forests, wildlife
and related natural resources.
Known in various parts of the country as “soil and
water conservation districts,” “resource conservation
districts,” “natural resource districts,” “land
conservation committees” and similar names, they share a
single mission: to coordinate assistance from all
available sources -- public and private, local, state
and federal -- in an effort to develop locally driven
solutions to natural resource concerns.
More than 15,000 volunteers serve in elected or
appointed positions on conservation districts' governing
boards. They work directly with more than 2.3 million
cooperating land managers nationwide, and their efforts
touch more than 778 million acres of private land.
