Residents and tourists of Bass Lake will no longer need to worry about having clean, healthy water running from their taps and faucets, thanks to a new state license allowing the operation of a new treatment system by Water Remediation Technology, LLC.

The license issued by the California Department of Health Services allows WRT to reduce high and unsafe levels of uranium currently in the water in one of five wells maintained by the town's water provider, Bass Lake Water Company. State officials limited the use of the well about a decade ago, only allowing the company to use it for a total of 15 days a year for emergencies.
