Bangor Water District
There are approximately 10,300 services (direct water connections) which provide service to approximately 10,500 domestic accounts and 550 fire protection services. Domestic water customers are charged based on the amount of water measured through a meter. Fire protection is provided through over 1100 hydrants.

The District also provides water directly to customers in parts of Clifton, Eddington, Hampden, Hermon, Orrington, and Veazie, as well as to the Hampden Water District.

Our source of supply is Floods Pond in Otis. The pond lies 15 miles east of Bangor in a rocky, rugged area which was scoured by the retreating glaciers. The pond supplies an excellent source of water that is clear, soft and palatable year-round. The watershed is an area of about eight square miles. The estimated dependable yield of Floods Pond is about million gallons per day. In order to protect the source of water, the District originally acquired a strip of land 200 feet wide around the periphery of Floods Pond and Burnt Pond, and in recent years has purchased several thousand additional acres of land in the watershed area to control activities which could impact water quality.
