The Suffolk County Water Authority will be hosting the next installment of its WaterTalk series of educational forums on February 20 at 6:00 pm at Amityville Public Library. This event provides an opportunity for area customers to learn more and ask questions about their drinking water. Those who are interested but cannot attend can view the event virtually, with the link available on SCWA’s website.
“Our drinking water continues to be a topic of discussion in the media, and we believe it is important for residents to have an open dialogue with their water provider to learn more,” said SCWA Chairman Charles Lefkowitz. “Our WaterTalk series provides our customers with the opportunity to ask us questions and gain a better understanding of how the SCWA supplies them with high-quality drinking water. We always look forward to seeing our customers at these events and helping them learn more about the crucial work we do at the SCWA every day.”
The WaterTalk series features a panel of experts that will discuss important topics, such as the quality of drinking water, the ways in which the SCWA is implementing new infrastructure to improve water service and quality, the importance of conservation and more. During the discussion, attendees are invited to ask questions. Water is Suffolk County’s most precious natural resource and SCWA officials hope attendees walk away from this event with increased knowledge about their water and increased trust in the product being delivered to their homes.
Residents who are interested in attending the SCWA WaterTalk can register by emailing [email protected]. Residents who would prefer to attend virtually can do so at www.scwa.com.
