Rivers and streams are not just for municipal and agricultural use; recreational and ecological values are now in the mix, like how much water is needed to maintain fisheries and to keep the river ecosystem intact?

So, the town is working on ways to become more efficient with its raw water use. KDNK's Amy Hadden Marsh has this report.
