Lynnwood Wastewater Treatment Plant Receives a NACWA Operational Excellence Award - Oct. 28, 2020

The City of Lynnwood Waste Water Treatment Plant is Recognized by National Association of Clean Water Agencies for Continued Operational Excellence 

Statement from NACWA CEO Applauds Award Winners’ Dedication to Operational Excellence

(Washington, D.C.) – This Wednesday at 2:00 p.m. EST in a live presentation ceremony recorded in Washington, D.C., the National Association of Clean Water Agencies (NACWA) presented the City of Lynnwood Waste Water Treatment Plant with one of this year’s NACWA Peak Performance Awards. This annual award is presented to honorees who have achieved excellence in operational performance and permit compliance.

Adam Krantz, Chief Executive Officer of NACWA, congratulates this year’s honorees, noting:

“Our public utility members are the backbone of the communities they serve, providing safe, reliable access to clean water services day-in and day-out. The Peak Performance Award ceremony is our chance to shine a national spotlight on those outstanding clean water utilities that have demonstrated operational excellence with no more than five permit violations in a calendar year, and, for our Gold and Platinum Award winners, zero violations.

These utilities represent the top performers in the whole country and go above and beyond in their mission to protect public health and the environment. On behalf of NACWA’s Board of Directors, I extend my congratulations and gratitude to all this year’s award winners and I thank them for their service and their incredible compliance with increasingly rigid Clean Water Act standards. This year has seen unprecedented challenges in the wake of the pandemic, and the Peak Performance Award winners have more than risen to the occasion.”
