DENVER — The American Water Works Association (AWWA) and water professionals throughout North America will celebrate Drinking Water Week, May 3-9, with special events focused on getting to know drinking water and the local drinking water supply, according to a press release.
Environmental advocates, water utilities and other interested groups will celebrate drinking water through school events, community festivals and pubic presentations to commemorate Drinking Water Week, stated the release.
These groups will also provide their communities with vital information on how consumers can get to know their water, continued the release.
