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.”
