Water companies that supply Cashiers

20 public water companies list Cashiers as a place they supply. The biggest is Fairfield Sapphire, with about 3,873 people. The highest latest result among Cashiers's water companies is 11 parts per billion, at Timber Ridge. None of the 20 with results was above 15 at its latest test. 13 found too little lead to measure. Small ones like Bridge Creek supply just their own grounds or street; most of Cashiers gets its water from Fairfield Sapphire. 16 are small systems serving fewer than 500 people each, such as a mobile home park, a subdivision or a business with its own well. Your water bill names yours.
