The City of Alliance relies on ground water as its source of potable water.  Water is derived from the Ogallala and Arikaree Aquifer. Average demand in the City is 2,458,000 gallons, with peak demands reaching over 7,000,000 gallons per day in the summer.

The quality of groundwater in the area is good, so the water supply is not routinely treated.  To ensure that it is clean and safe to drink, water samples are sent to State labs for testing on a regularly scheduled basis. Chlorination is periodically used to keep the system clean.



Water Supply Master Plan

The City currently  maintains approximately 60 miles of collection line.  The majority of the sewer mains are reported to be in good condition.  The sewer department undertakes an aggressive cleaning and replacement program to ensure uninterrupted sewer line flows.  Waste treatment is provided utilizing a controlled discharge lagoon system.   



The sewer Department jet cleans more than 200,000 feet of sewer mains annually
