Water System Operations Services
To ensure the quality of water provided to the public, the Mass. Dept. of Environmental Protection requires all public drinking water suppliers to obtain the services of a Certified and Licensed Water Systems Operator.
The duties of the Licensed Operator encompass all aspects of the operation of the drinking water system. They are responsible for the quality of water to the last free flowing outlet in the system.
It is their job to keep public drinking water systems in compliance with the myriad regulations of the DEP.
Through meticulous inspections, water quality testing, record keeping, and reporting, the operator works with the DEP to prevent threats to the public health. The ever-changing developments in the drinking water industry require continual education and training to keep up to date.
Our most important job is to protect the quality of your drinking water.
