Water is distributed throughout the town by two finished water pump stations, one booster station, four storage tanks and variously sized distribution piping. All water supplied to the Town of Luray undergoes treatment. Treatment of Hite Spring and Well 6 is accomplished at the Water Treatment Plant located on Stoney Brook Lane prior to distribution and consists of membrane filtration to remove turbidity, chlorination to disinfect the water, and fluoridation to aid in reducing tooth decay.
A 1/4" stream / diameter hole can waste 1,181,500 gallons of water.

A 1/8" stream / diameter hole can waste 296,000 gallons of water.
