Even before the Green Worcester Plan was implemented, the Water and Sewer Operations of the Department of Public Works was working on conservation efforts and ways to better use technology to improve the city s drinking water.
Those efforts were recently rewarded with a 2020 Public Water System award for energy conservation from the Massachusetts Environmental Protection Agency. The Robert Moylan Jr. Water Filtration plant was the recipient of the award for innovating practices, and data from the plant now shows 2020 electricity usage has been the lowest in the past six years.
