LAKEWOOD, Colo., June 16,
2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Natural Grocers®
offers members of Montana
communities impacted by this week's significant flooding free
filtered water from its store in Billings, Montana. Free water will be
available starting today through Thursday,
June 30, 2022.
Free filtered water available at the
Natural Grocers, Billings, Montana
through June 30th.
The unprecedented recent flooding in the Yellowstone area has triggered power outages
and damaged hundreds of homes in the nearby communities. The
flooding has also impacted water treatment plants, leaving multiple
cities in Montana without water or
with boil water orders (the requirement to boil water before
consumption: including eating, drinking, washing hands and faces,
and brushing teeth).
Natural Grocers is offering free water from the Billings, Montana store's reverse osmosis
water filtration machines for those in need. The ultraviolet
sterilization process used in Natural Grocers' water dispensers
disinfects the water with UV light, designed to provide safe,
high-quality water that does not need to be boiled before
consumption. Additionally, via multiple filtration steps, the
reverse osmosis process is intended to filter out suspended
particles, chlorine and a wide range of chemicals, salts, lead,
impurities, and more.
Due to capacity limitations of the store's water filtration
system, which can only pump 75 gallons of water every other hour,
each person is limited to two free gallons of water. To fill up on
free water from the organic and natural grocery retailer, customers
should bring their filled receptacle to the register, along with
any items they are purchasing. Customers are urged to bring their
own containers to fill, though the store will have a limited
assortment for purchase.
"We are here to support our community as we navigate this
disaster together. Please spread the word to friends and neighbors.
We are thankful for your business and hope this can help you and
your family during these hard times," said Mat Topham, Regional
Manager for Natural Grocers.
