Seekonk Water Department Honored

At a State House presentation on May 11, the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) recognized the Seekonk Water District for its Outstanding Performance in the Medium and Large Community Systems. Seekonk Water has received this award in six of the last seven years.

This is a compliance-based award program with only the highest scoring public water systems recognized. The system must maintain compliance with drinking water regulations for the entire calendar year, and public water systems that take initiative to venture above and beyond compliance help narrow the selection.

The Seekonk Water District is among the 18 medium and large community systems to receive this prestigious award for 2022.

The Massachusetts Senate and House of Representatives awarded official citations recognizing the water districts for their accomplishments.
