Secondary water is not treated like drinking water and should only be used for watering yards. Drinking or playing in secondary water can make you sick.
Due to health concerns, the Utah Department of Health and Human Services has issued a safety alert and launched SecondaryWaterSafety.utah.gov to raise awareness about the potential health risks of secondary water use.
For questions or more information, please contact the Utah Department of Health and Human Services at 801-538-6191 or email epi@utah.gov.
