We’ve received reports of postcards and water collection bottles being left in mailboxes or at residences. These are NOT from AWWSB. It is likely an attempt by a water filtration marketer to sell unneeded filtration systems.
AWWSB offers high quality drinking water as evidenced by the linked Water Quality Report. Our water samples are collected using industry best practices and processed by certified laboratories.
Our ultimate goal here at AWWSB remains delivering high quality drinking water to our customers on demand and protecting the environment and public health through responsible wastewater treatment and source water protection.
