For the past few days, Benjamin Pearson has been cleaning his home's secondary water filter more than he would like. The culprit? Possibly clam shrimp.

ROY, Utah — For the past few days, Benjamin Pearson has been cleaning his home's secondary water filter more than he would like.

In 2018 and 2021, the Roy Water Conservancy District confirmed there were clam shrimp clogging some water filters. Although they have not yet confirmed that this year, Pearson and other Roy residents say what's on their filters looks and smells the same as years past. "That water comes directly from springs, streams, etc. That water is often used for irrigation, not drinking water purposes," Hawkins said."That water will certainly have all sorts of organisms in it, so it's not surprising a clam shrimp would end up on additional filters."
