DrinkTap.org Offers Information About Tap Water During Drinking Water Week

Denver – As Drinking Water Week continues, the American Water Works Association and water professionals across North America are encouraging the public to learn about their water supply and local water utility by visiting AWWA’s fully updated consumer website, DrinkTap.org.

DrinkTap.org offers consumers an opportunity to browse information on various subjects including conservation, household leaks, infrastructure, bottled water, drought, pollution, fluoridation and contaminants – including lead.

Additionally, a new kids’ section offers videos, games and educational links. A calendar has also been added to the site that focuses on events important to the water, science and engineering communities.

“DrinkTap.org is a valuable resource for utilities to draw on to help their customers, and consumers can tap into it to learn about all things water,” said AWWA Chief Executive Officer David LaFrance. “Learning about our water supply and our local water utility aids us in appreciating them.”
