What does it actually take to keep water flowing 24/7?

Behind the scenes, MPWC crews are constantly monitoring systems, inspecting infrastructure, responding to emergencies, testing water quality, repairing mains, maintaining hydrants, and preparing for the unexpected.

Some days involve planned maintenance. Other days involve responding to leaks or emergency calls at a moment’s notice.

It’s work most people never see, but it’s happening every day to help keep safe, reliable water flowing throughout our community.

💧 Did You Know? If you have a leaking shut-off valve or interior plumbing issue, repairs within your property are typically the customer’s responsibility.

Main shut-off valves play an important role in controlling water flow into your home and can help prevent larger plumbing issues if maintained properly.

Not sure where your shut-off valve is located? It’s a good idea to identify it before an emergency happens.

👥 Meet the Team: Meet Raven, one of MPWC’s Staff Engineers.

From reviewing water applications to overseeing projects in the field, Raven helps support the infrastructure that keeps our water system operating safely and reliably every day.

Raven was drawn to the water industry through her interest in environmental engineering and water treatment and enjoys being part of an industry most people don’t think about until they turn on the tap.

“One thing I wish more people understood is that there’s a difference between groundwater and surface water treatment. Groundwater comes from aquifers drilled deep underground, while surface water comes from lakes, rivers, and streams.”

We’re grateful to have dedicated team members like Raven helping serve our community.

🌎 Clean water and a healthy environment go hand in hand.

On World Environment Day, we’re reminded how important it is to protect the natural resources our communities rely on every day.

From water conservation efforts to ongoing system monitoring and infrastructure improvements, protecting water quality is part of our commitment year-round.

Small actions matter, and together, we can help preserve our environment for future generations.

The reason modern water standards exist? You can thank people like Walt Spencer!

Walt Spencer was a founding member of the American Water Works Association (AWWA) and helped lay the foundation for many of the water safety standards still used today.

His work played an important role in shaping the future of safe, reliable drinking water not just locally, but across the industry as a whole.

As MPWC celebrates 100 years of service, we’re proud to recognize the individuals whose vision and leadership helped shape modern water systems and the standards communities continue to rely on every day.

🌿Watering your lawn? Here’s what to know before you turn on the sprinkler.

As the weather warms up, water usage naturally increases. A few small adjustments can help conserve water while still keeping your lawn healthy:
• Water in the early morning or evening
• Avoid watering during the hottest part of the day
• Follow odd/even day guidelines based on your address

Simple habits can make a big difference, especially during peak usage months.
