We were excited to welcome interns and students from the Cahaba River Coalition to Central Alabama Water to learn how we treat and deliver safe drinking water to the communities we serve.

During their visit, the group learned about the water filtration process, toured our facilities and gained a better understanding of the work that goes into providing clean, reliable water every day.

Thanks for spending time with us. We enjoyed sharing our passion for water and hope to see you again soon!

Part of the Central Alabama Water team recently toured American Cast Iron Pipe Company. We appreciated the opportunity to learn more about how ductile iron pipe is manufactured.

We appreciate the important work you do to deliver clean, reliable drinking water to people and communities across the area.
