Trust the Tap ®

Valley County Water District’s Trust the Tap communications campaign officially launched in January 2020. With a mission to exceed water quality standards and deliver safe drinking water to the community at an affordable cost, the District is working to change the customer’s perception of tap water. 

The District's goal is to strengthen the community’s trust and confidence along with develop a sense of dependability and reliability in the customer mindset.
