Tour our Northeast water reclamation facility and see how we turn sewage into reclaimed water that can be applied to lawns and landscaping.
Learn how to conserve water using rain barrels and installing rain gardens at home.

Find out how the city handles its recycling and what can and cannot be tossed into your blue recycling bin.
See what it takes to build and maintain a biodigester, which is a tank or apparatus that uses microbial action to convert organic waste material like food leftovers or sewage into biogas. These are commonly used throughout Asia and the Middle East.
Find out how to install water-saving devices, such as low-flow showerheads, sink aerators, toilet tummies, etc. to conserve water in your home.
