AWQR (Annual Water Quality Report)
Bolton Point, who supplies water to Town of Ulysses Water District 3 (Jacksonville area), via the Town of
Ithaca, has released their Annual Water Quality report. View it here: http://www.ulysses.ny.us/pages/current-
issues/136/2017-annual-water-quality-report-awqr-for-water-district-3/
WARNING: WILD PARSNIP CAN CAUSE SEVERE BURNS
From the Town Supervisor:
Wild parsnip is just about to flower in our area. If you are mowing or weeding please take precautions by
either avoiding the plant or covering your skin to avoid any contact with the plant parts. The plant is 3 to 4
feet tall with a yellow flower similar to dill or Queen Ann's Lace.
Wild parsnip produces a compound in its leaves, stems, flowers and seeds that can cause intense, localized
burning, rash, blistering and discoloration when the sap on the skin is exposed to sunlight. It is not an
allergic reaction, it is a chemical burn brought on by an increase in the skin's sensitivity to sunlight. Affected
areas can remain discolored and sensitive to sunlight for up to two years.
