Celebrate Drinking Water Week May 4 - 10, 2008
A safe, reliable water supply is critical to the success of any community. It creates jobs, attracts industry and investment, and provides for the health and welfare of citizens in ways ranging from disease prevention to fire suppression. We often take water supply for granted until it is threatened, either by drought, water main breaks, or some other event.
Drinking Water Week is a unique opportunity for both water professionals and the communities they serve to join together to recognize the vital role water plays in our daily lives. Join MWS in celebrating what Only Tap Water Delivers that no other water can.

Water...the real taste of life!
Metro Water Services (MWS) stands ready to serve you with an abundant, clean and safe water supply and dependable wastewater and stormwater services. Nashville is fortunate to have a plentiful supply of water from the Cumberland River. However, ensuring clean water from this source requires hard work and constant vigilance, as well as proper handling and treatment of wastewater from our homes and industries.
Metro Water Services supplies drinking water to customers in Davidson County, as well as parts of Rutherford and Williamson counties from both the K. R. Harrington and the R.L. Lawrence (Omohundro) Water Treatment Plants. Wastewater is treated at any one of our three wastewater treatment plants: Central, Whites Creek, and Dry Creek. These facilities serve customers in Davidson and parts of Sumner, Robertson, Wilson, Rutherford, and Williamson Counties.
We hope that the information we have provided in these pages will answer any questions you may have about this department and our customer policies, programs, and treatment systems. For more information on water quality, please write us at the following address.
