2022 Annual Water Quality Report

Dear Village of Warwick Residents,

The Village of Warwick is blessed with significant and valuable water resources. As part of our water supply system the Village maintains three reservoirs and two wells. The reservoirs are fed by natural run-off, mountain streams and springs. The wells tap into a large aquifer which stretches from Memorial Park to points beyond the eastern boundary of the Village.

Each of the resources are connected to a purification plant, the reservoirs to the main water plant and Well #2 to a microfiltration system. The Village is beginning the rehabilitation of well number three which will include a new purification system.

This year the Village will be engaged in two major projects, the redevelopment of Well #3 and the moving of the Maple Avenue Pump Station. Well #3 has been offline due to its direct connection to surface water. Bringing the Well back online will allow for enhanced redundancy and drought resiliency. The move of the Maple Avenue Pump Station will allow for the redevelopment of the intersection of Colonial and Maple Avenue by the NY State Department of Transportation. Both projects have been awarded grants totaling $1,850,000.

The distribution system encompasses the entire Village and includes six storage tanks, six pump stations and 45 miles of water mains which includes fire hydrants.

The 2022 Annual Water Quality Report, accessible HERE in both English and Spanish, will give you direct information about your water. It is a thorough accounting of levels of found contaminates and purification methods. Please take a moment to review this report. It has vital information about one of our most precious resources.

The Village of Warwick is dedicated to the continued upgrades and repairs of its water system. The purity of our water and the safe management of our water systems has and remains our priority.

Thank you,

Michael J. Newhard

Mayor
