Tupper Lake village Water and Sewer Department Superintendent Mark Robillard places a stake in the ground at the site of a potential third well on the shore of the Raquette River.
(Enterprise photo â Aaron Cerbone) TUPPER LAKE This village has been in an year’s long struggle for clean drinking water and there are two possible paths forward the water department and village board are considering drilling a third well to source more ground water or installing microfiltration plants to source cleaner lake water. After years of poor water color and quality, and following many attempts to amend this issue that have failed or resulted in further problems, Water and Sewer Department Superintendent Mark Robillard said he hopes a third potential well drilling site on the shore of Raquette River at the end of Glenwood Avenue will be enough to supplement the two existing wells drilled in 2018.
