Wichita water quality: then

Wichita, the largest city in Kansas, is located along the Arkansas River near the western edge of the Flint Hills. The surrounding land has supported human habitation since as early as 3000 BC, according to archeological evidence. Natives were drawn to this area where the Arkansas and Little Arkansas Rivers meet. Over time, Wichita grew due to its location along cattle trails and the discovery of oil and natural gas deposits in the area. As the population grew, so did the need for clean water. The Cheney Reservoir was constructed in the 1960s to supply Wichita with clean water when water from the Arkansas River was determined to be too polluted to be safe.

Today, more than 60% of the drinking water for residents of Wichita is sourced from the Cheney Reservoir. The remaining 40% comes from the Equus beds, an aquifer located in south-central Kansas. Sedgwick County manages Kansas water quality through Wichita Water Works.
