Seven WSSC facilities recognized nationally for excellence
Yesterday WSSC Water, a Md.-based water utility, announced that seven of its facilities received awards of excellence from two leading national industry organizations.
At the utility’s monthly Commission meeting, the National Association of Clean Water Agencies (NACWA) presented their Peak Performance Awards to five water resource recovery facilities (formerly known as wastewater treatment plants). In addition, the American Water Works Association (AWWA) presented Presidents Awards to two water filtration plants.
“To achieve this level of sustained excellence under normal circumstances is incredible, but to win these awards during the challenges brought on by COVID-19 is even more impressive,” said WSSC Water General Manager and CEO Carla A. Reid. “I express my sincere gratitude to all of the H2O Heroes who work at these facilities every day to protect public health and the environment.”
