    Thanks Dave for your help—I am in the process of doing some more improvements in the big springs area and your info has helped.

    we went to this spring and did not get water. We did not find a place where the water was properly tapped…just some open ponds where the water bubbles up, not what we are interested in drinking…

    Are you going to do anything more to access this water source? I live near there and would be interested to know if there is a way to safely use the spring. Cheryl Fuller

    The big springs is now part of the Mackay Wildlife Preserve and protected from any use other than it*s natural flow.It is the main source for the NYS Fish Hatchery down stream.The spring water is not fit for human consumption as it cotains chemicals that would be harmful to humans.
      Enjoy it*s natural beauty as it is while we still have it and thanks for enjoying the Springs—Barry

    The Springs are just west of the Thomas Overlook on Spring st.They consist of 3 holes that are the source.In the dry weather is the best time to see the springs as they are very visable at that time.  Thank you–Barry

    Please don*t drink the water at the Springs as it is not for human consumption.Enjoy the Springs as a natural wonder while we still have them–Thanks Barry
