In this article, plans to build a water treatment facility on a Cherokee reservation are being discussed.  Previous to this water treatment facility, the reservation's water was chlorinated as a method of filtration.  As we learned in class, this method is not the best way to go about filtering the water because it released chlorine, which can harm the environment.  It also does not give the reservation as good quality of water than the surrounding area in Delaware County where they are building this facility.  This facility is going to try and give the Cherokees the same well-being that the non-reservation residents already experience.
