The <br />Navarre WTP was constructed in 1971. The water treatment plant includes a pre-fabricated steel <br />filter to remove iron and manganese from the water pumped from Wells No. 1 and 2. Three ion <br />exchange softeners follow the filter to remove hardness causing elements, primarily calcium and <br />magnesium. <br />P <br />!
