Nutter Fort Embraces Smart Water Technology For A Sustainable Future

The Town of Nutter Fort, West Virginia, embodies the spirit of a close-knit community, where generations have lived, worked, and raised families together. It is the quintessential small town, with a population of around 1,450 that nearly doubles when school is in session, thanks to one of the state’s largest elementary schools. “Nutter Fort is small town USA,” said Treasurer Leslie Cummings. She has served as the town’s treasurer for over 15 years and, along with the rest of the town's leadership, is deeply invested in helping the community flourish and grow.

This dedication to serving the town drives every infrastructure decision the Nutter Fort team makes, ensuring that the community's needs are met in the most efficient, sustainable ways possible. In line with this commitment to modernizing its water infrastructure with advanced metering technology reflects a forward-thinking approach that has reshaped the way the town’s water infrastructure is handled, drastically reducing water loss, labor hours, and overall municipal costs— and making water management more efficient, sustainable, and beneficial to the entire community.
