Indiana American Water, Richmond Mayor David Snow and a handful of community leaders celebrated the completion of a new water treatment facility on August 12, 2020.

The $45 million project includes construction of a new water treatment facility to replace the two existing treatment facilities located on the city’s northeast side, one near the Middlefork Reservoir and one near the East Fork of the White River. The new facility will improve water quality and help the company to meet new, more stringent water quality regulations, reduce disinfection by-products in the finished drinking water and enhance plant safety.
