Meter readings show the tap is providing roughly 218 gallons per day — slightly less than one household consumes in a day to residents seeking GenX-free water.
Readings taken last week showed a total of 13,504 gallons were withdrawn since July 18.
But that usage includes water to wash dishes, do laundry and irrigate.
It is unclear how the water taken from the station is being used.
Ogden and areas south of Monkey Junction are the only parts of the county that receive CFPUA groundwater rather than treated river water from the Sweeney plant.
Three downtown Wilmington churches are also offering residents who can’t get to Ogden Park access to the free public water tap. The churches transport empty containers to the county park where they will be filled with the treated groundwater. It is unclear how many residents are using the service.

However, this change has come not just like that, but over a period of comprehensive and meticulous planning, efficient execution of planned works and equally efficient operation and maintenance of each and every component devised in the project, “24×7 Water Supply System To Ilkal City”, taken up under the North Karnataka Urban Sector Investment Programme (NKUSIP), says Shivanand Kapashi, former Executive Director of the programme.
Although situated under the nose of Krishna river, which flows just 28 km away from the city, the situation was appalling throughout the year and the woes of the residents would only manifest in various degrees during summers.
The demographics on one side, and the availability of a major source of water like the Almatti dam across Krishna River on the other side turned out to be a blessing-in-disguise for the residents of the city.
The state government selected Ilkal along with 13 other towns and cities in the north Karnataka region to improve water access to households.
Finally, the project was conceived, and it was decided that it would be implemented at an initial estimated cost of Rs.19.79 crore, with the assistance of the Project Consultant SNC Lavalin Infrastructure Pvt.
Subsequently, water is supplied to every household in Ilkal city through a total distribution length of 124 km.

Chandigarh Patiala, September 17 Over two dozen colonies in the city are facing irregular water supply of drinking water for the past fortnight.
Many localities in the city, including Sewak Colony, Lehal Colony, Kishore Colony, Desi Mehamandari, Rajpura Colony and Factory Area localities, are reeling under water scarcity.
While Municipal Corporation (MC) officials have been informed about the problem, nothing has been done to ensure round-the-clock or at least guaranteed water supply for fixed hours.
"Generally, water is supplied twice a day – an hour each in the morning and evening.
But on certain days, we do not get a single drop of water.
The MC keeps making false promises of installing more tubewells in the city to solve the problem," alleged residents.
"Some day we get two-hour water supply in the morning, the next day there won’t be a single drop.
Residents alleged they have approached the Municipal Corporation officials numerous times in the last week, but there has been no respite.
“Throughout the day, we wait for water so that we have enough in store to meet our demands,” he said.
Meanwhile, the Municipal Corporation officials, , said they are trying their best to provide ample drinking water to the city residents.

Precautionary Boil Advisory Issued After Water Main Break.
The Valparaiso City Utilities Department of Water Works says a boil advisory has been issued as a precautionary measure following a water main break.
The boil advisory is in effect for select customers along Ransom Road and Goodrich Road and all of Green Field Creek and Candlewood subdivisions.
Valparaiso City Utilities crews are repairing a water main break within the Valparaiso water distribution system.
SELF School in Valparaiso, which was on a one-hour fog delay earlier, is closed today due to the water main break, school officials said.
The announcement from city utilities says the water microbiology laboratory will conduct necessary testing to assure the water passes the required bacteria tests, and the boil advisory will last approximately 48 hours but may be extended if additional testing is required.

UT’s new Drinking Water Research Lab allows cities to test safety of public water supply.
A new Drinking Water Research Laboratory at The University of Toledo will allow local municipalities to quickly and easily test the safety of the public water supply.
A $500,000 grant from the State of Ohio Community Capital Program provided the state-of-the-art technology and renovations for the laboratory in the UT College of Engineering.
"Water treatment plants in Ohio face new challenges from a host of emerging algal toxins, as well as contaminants from other emerging micropollutants, such as pharmaceutical products or microplastics in their source waters," said Dr. Youngwoo Seo, associate professor in UT’s chemical engineering department.
"By engaging with the lab, the municipalities can get early warning signs of new and emerging algal toxins, as well as quantification of existing toxins during cases of concern."
The lab’s liquid chromatography mass spectrometer system and new flow cytometer will be used to detect various cyanotoxins, such as microcystin from the toxic algal blooms in Lake Erie.
The lab is focused exclusively on drinking water research, eliminating concerns of cross contamination from other samples to allow very low detection limits for improved testing accuracy.
"Many water utilities have difficulties in continuously analyzing samples due to high costs and limited time.
A water utility could, for example, send water samples every week during the algal bloom to track the concentration of toxins in source water and treated water so that they can make informed decisions on the type of treatment," said Dr. Joseph Lawrence, UT research professor.
A ribbon-cutting ceremony to celebrate the opening of the lab will be held in North Engineering Room 1600 on Tuesday at 10 a.m.

The PWD water supply authority has decided to step up its efforts against water theft and excessive water use in Valpoi and surrounding areas.
In this regard, the official of PWD-Valpoi has decided to revive its anti-water theft squad to keep a tab on theft of potable water.
The move comes in the wake of ‘The Navhind Times’ report highlighting unavailability of water in remote villages of Valpoi.
A PWD official confirmed about the unavailability of water in remote areas of Valpoi and it was stated that during an inspection, several instances of meter tampering came to the fore.
After a discussion, the PWD will be forming a squad which will keep a check on water theft cases, it was informed.
Meanwhile, this reporter was informed that in Thane village due to ongoing work of laying new pipelines the water supply was less from Dabos plant, but not below permissible level.
According to PWD records, 13000 consumers, including household, commercial and construction, use per day nearly 20 MLD water in allotted jurisdiction.
We have found that few consumers are misusing the water by way of tampering, which is affecting the flow of water in this region,” said one of the officials of Valpoi PWD water supply.
However, the PWD believes that the drive will be successful only with public participation.
Meanwhile, it is also observed that many leakages do exist to the pipelines and these are needed to be plugged to avoid wastage of water.

With rising urban populations and ever scarcer water supplies, cities and companies are teaming up to invest billions of dollars in water management projects, a report said on Tuesday.
The key issues for cities include declining water quality, water shortages and flooding.
The Indian city of Chennai faced extreme floods in 2015 which killed hundreds and left survivors without access to clean water, while businesses were also severely disrupted.
The city is now investing in boosting its resilience to future water crises, with water conservation education, building a storm water management system and new infrastructure.
“We are seeing critical shifts in leadership from cities and companies in response to the very real threat of flooding, for example, to local economies,” said Morgan Gillespy, head of CDP’s Water Program.
Climate change is another underlying threat to all cities with an increase in extreme weather events from droughts to floods, with cities in North America more concerned than those in Europe, the report found.
Tropical Storm Harvey, pounding the U.S. Gulf Coast, has killed at least eight people, led to mass evacuations and paralyzed Houston, the fourth most-populous U.S. city.
Companies are also concerned about the effects of climate change on water supplies, with $14 billion of water impacts such as loss of production reported by companies last year, the report found.
UN predicts global water shortfall The United Nations predicts a 40 percent shortfall in global water supply by 2030, while global demand is set to increase by 55 percent due to growing domestic use, manufacturing and electricity generation.

Residents open taps to hygienic water supply.
RESIDENTS of Lau settlement in Ra now have access to safe drinking water after the opening of a hygienic water supply and sanitation system in the area.
The new system was made possible through the assistance of the Rotary Pacific Water project which was funded by VaiWai, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and the New Zealand Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade.
Pleass Global Ltd marketing director Cate Pleass and Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints country welfare manager Frank Stanford officially commissioned the new water supply system on Monday.
Prior to the new water supply system, Lau residents trekked daily to wash clothes and collect water in barrels from the Wainibuka River.
"Community water security is now ensured by a gravity feed system that brings water direct to people’s homes," a statement from Rotary Pacific Water said.
"This consists of a five-metre concrete dam, a 10,000 litre storage tank and tap stands near the houses.
"A backup 10,000 litre tank was also installed to ensure continued water supply in times of natural disaster and drought.
"To provide safe potable water, a slow sand filtration unit has been installed on each of the 10,000 litre tanks."
Two new flush toilets with off-set double pits were also constructed to provide settlers with better sanitation for improved health and wellbeing.
