Public Education and Outreach
The Authority continues its public information campaign to keep rate payers informed. Since learning of PFAS in Sweetwater Reservoir, the Authority has held seven community meetings throughout the Authority’s service area and provided continuous communication with stakeholders via direct and social media. The Authority will continue to provide updates to customers as additional testing is completed.
