Get the 2008 Water Quality Report

Dear Water Customer,

I am pleased to offer you this year’s annual Water Quality Report. This Report highlights our efforts and programs to maintain and improve the delivery of pure, fresh drinking water to Chicago and our suburbs.

Providing safe, pure drinking water is not measured in just the financial costs of production. It also requires vigilant effort to ensure that the water meets or exceeds all regulatory standards.  These standards are always rising, as we develop new testing methods and monitoring protocols.

We are also proud of our efforts to renew Chicago’s infrastructure with the installation of new water and sewer mains, the advance of Automatic Meter Reading (AMR) efforts and the introduction of our new MeterSave program, which can save you money and conserve water.

I encourage you to review this report carefully and to participate in the conservation programs that will benefit you and your family. With your help, we can ensure the ongoing supply and high quality of our water for future generations of Chicagoans.

Sincerely,

Richard M. Daley
Mayor
