Fremont has the best tasting water says The American Water Works Association

FREMONT, Neb. (AP) — The American Water Works Association says Fremont has the best-tasting water in the country.

Local Fremont media says the city won the association’s annual Best of the Best Water Taste Test, besting the regional winners from across North America.

The city water comes from nine wells with an average depth of 90 feet in a well field about three miles southeast of the city, near the Platte River.

Officials say the city water treatment plant adds fluoride and a little chlorine and a substance to control manganese.
