Allensworth
Tulare County, California
The rural community of Allensworth, CA needed to solve their century-old water quality issue of contamination to protect the health and well-being of their residents. Allensworth has been plagued by arsenic in its water for more than 100 years, with contamination sometimes rising 60 percent above safe levels. New infrastructure is out of reach for this disadvantaged community, and residents were traveling to the next county to buy drinking water in single-use plastic bottles.
SOURCE Hydropanels located at a community center are giving the people of Allensworth safe, high-quality drinking water for the first time in decades, and SOURCE technology is now part of the local school’s STEM education curriculum.
