Virginia Mercury: “Virginia’s State Water Control Board amended regulations last week that will require local governments in the same river basin to work together in crafting plans for water supply and use.”
“Previously, the state allowed local governments to choose whether they wanted to submit such plans independently or work with other localities in a regional approach. Plans must include existing water sources, water use and environmental conditions, any actions being taken to manage water supply and drought response plans, among other information.”
Prince William Service Authority: “Prince William County Service Authority employees showcased their skills and expertise at the Virginia Section American Water Works Association (VA AWWA) 33rd Annual Water Distribution Seminar and Utility Rodeo.”
“Held in Roanoke earlier this month, the Utility Rodeo featured contests that tested participants’ skill, speed and safety in the water utility industry.”
Prince William County Service Authority: “Employees, contractors and customers visiting Prince William County Service Authority’s Spittle Administrative Building Lobby this summer will notice a new installation.”
“The sculpture is on loan to the Service Authority from the Prince William Soil & Water Conservation District (Soil & Water District) and Freedom High School’s Center for Environmental & Natural Sciences (CENS), who partnered on the initiative to promote the importance of reducing trash in the environment.”
The Prince William Service Authority: “The Prince William County Service Authority releases its 2023 Water Quality Reports, which provide important information about the source and characteristics of the utility’s drinking water.”
“The reports are available on the Service Authority’s website at www.pwcsa.org.”
