Rockville facility is largest source of drinking water for customers in the Northern Region
Customers and the public can see the fascinating, complicated processes involved with delivering high-quality drinking water to our customers during an open house at Connecticut Water’s Rockville Drinking Water Treatment Facility in Vernon-Rockville on Wednesday, June 26.
Connecticut Water President Craig J. Patla, P.E., stated, “Our team of local water professionals are eager to share the tools we use to protect water sources, filter and treat water to remove impurities, and test its quality. We know that high-quality drinking water and reliable service are essential to our customers and the community, and this open house is great way to share our commitment to service.”
The Rockville facility is the largest single source of drinking water for Connecticut Water customers in northcentral Connecticut.
