The Pretty Prairie Well Head Protection Committee hopes to educate area school children as to the importance of protecting their water resources, and preventing possible pollution to our groundwater. We want each student to have at least one idea of how to insure that our area's quality water remains one of our best assets to our community. We think we were very successful in our attempt, and are looking forward to working with these students ahead in the years to come. The Kansas Department of Health and Environment has awarded our community with a grant to assist with annual water festivals, books, computer programs, water-testing kits and other educational materials. The Pretty Prairie Well Head Protection Committee, along with a Clean Water Neighbor Grant sponsored by KDHE and the EPA, has established a community cable station dedicated to water education and other community news.
People have a hand in making something better by being a positive effect.
When individuals, organizations, communities and local governments act in ways that preserve and protect water, positive results are sure to follow.

The Committee represents a cross section of public and private interests, ranging from soil conservation to agriculture, to public education and local citizen input. The Pretty Prairie City Council carefully selects these members, acknowledging their potential to contribute to the protection of the City of Pretty Prairie's public water supply source.
