For
starters,
it’s
the
same
as
it
was
3
billion
years
ago.
Comedian
W.C.
Fields
famously
rejected
it
as
the
medium
in
which
fish
conduct
their
reproductive
activities,
but
he
couldn’t
escape
it
entirely.
After
all,
it
comprised
more
than
60
percent
of
his
body,
70
percent
of
his
brain,
80
percent
of
his
blood
and
nearly
90
percent
of
his
lungs.
What
“it”
is,
is
water.
Every
living
thing
needs
water
to
live
—
humans,
who
can
go a
month
without
food,
die
after
just
a
week
without
their
H2O
—
and
every
living
thing
contains
it
to a
significant
degree.
Water
makes
up
75
percent
of
the
average
chicken
and
tree,
for
example,
and
80
percent
of a
pineapple.
The
"No
Dumping"
decals
are a
part of
the
Fayette
and
Scott
County
Wellhead
Protection
Plan
designed
to
protect
our
water.
These
decals,
which
are
provided
by the
City of
Georgetown
and
Georgetown
Municipal
Water &
Sewer
Service,
have
been
placed
on storm
drain
covers
to
hopefully
stop
people
from
dumping
toxic
chemicals
into the
storm
drains.
The
Royal
Spring
Aquifer
is
highly
susceptible
to
pollution
due to
the
underground
streams
and
caverns
in our
area
which
allow
pollutants
to
travel
quickly
into our
water
supply.
