The Port Washington Water District was honored by the Long Island Water Conference for over 100 years of service to the Port Washington community. Water Commissioners David Brackett and Peter Meyer received a plaque from LIWC Chairman Michael Levy on behalf of the District’s dedication to its residents.
“Port Washington Water District has placed the needs of its residents and community as its top priority for the past 100 years,” said Long Island Water Conference’s Michael Levy. “This centennial mark proves that the district will continue to improve residents’ safety and provide high quality water at an affordable price in years to come.”
The Port Washington Water District began serving the Port Washington community in 1913, making it one of the oldest water districts on Long Island.
One hundred years later, the Port Washington Water District encompasses 147 miles of water main, maintains over 1,250 hydrants and pumps over 1.3 billion gallons of water to about 50,000 residents every year.
