Learn about our water quality and meet some of the people behind the scenes
Evansville Water and Sewer Utility (EWSU) is proud to celebrate Drinking Water Week May 4 through May 10. Drinking Water Week is an opportunity to spotlight our water quality and the essential work our team does every day to provide safe, clean drinking water to Evansville and surrounding communities.
In conjunction with Drinking Water Week, EWSU is releasing its 2024 Water Quality Report, which details how Evansville’s water meets or exceeds all state and federal drinking water standards. The report, also called the Consumer Confidence Report, is available online at: https://bit.ly/3S2DJlP
What is Drinking Water Week
Drinking Water Week is a time to recognize the value of water and the people behind it. At EWSU, it’s a chance to pull back the curtain and give customers a behind-the-scenes look at the science, systems, and staff that keep our water flowing.
How EWSU Keeps Your Water Safe
Our team of dedicated professionals works 24/7 to monitor, treat, and deliver millions of gallons of water every day. From testing and treatment to infrastructure maintenance, every step is designed to ensure safety, quality, and reliability.
