(Boston, Massachusetts January 28, 2009) - The City of Pittsfield, Mass., Wastewater Treatment Facility was recently selected by E.P.A. for a regional Wastewater Treatment Plant Excellence Award.
The staff of the Pittsfield facility, led by Superintendent Thomas Landry, was acknowledged by EPA's New England Office for exceptional work in operating and maintaining the plant. The plant was among 4 facilities in New England acknowledged for exemplary performance during 2008. The Western Regional Office of the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection was instrumental in nominating this facility.
"The professionals operating these wastewater treatment plants, as well as the municipalities and the state environmental agencies that support them, are vital players in keeping our environment healthy. I am proud to give them the credit they deserve," said Ira W. Leighton, acting regional administrator of EPA's New England Office.
The E.P.A. Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant Excellence Award was established to recognize and honor the employees of publicly owned wastewater treatment plants for their commitment to improving water quality with outstanding plant operations and maintenance and on-going operator training. This award plan has found that particularly with smaller facilities, conscientious operators and staff continue to perform exceptionally well with limited resources.
The Pittsfield wastewater treatment plant staff and facility were acknowledged on January 28th at the yearly New England Water Environment Association Conference in Boston.
