Thanks to PS 249 - The Caton School for having me at their Career Day… I really enjoyed talking to the students about NYC Water, the sewers, and wastewater treatment plants. Hopefully we inspired a few future DEP employees in Brooklyn today!! 😉🌊

Happy #MemorialDay NYC, and a big thank you to all the DEP staff who keep our city flowing, even on holidays!

Queens Borough Commissioner Alfonzo Lopez recently ran into Forest Hills Girl Scout Troop 4631 and met these Brownies, whose "Take Action Project" promotes water conservation and the healthy benefits of drinking water. Brownies? Sounds more like Smart Cookies to us!

Over the weekend DEP Bronx Borough Commissioner Effie Ardizzone and our Bureau of Water and Sewer Operations received assistance from some amazing @NYPDNews Explorers to give the FDNY hydrants along the Grand Concourse, 149th Street, and Bruckner Boulevard a summer glow-up!

Raymond Feige was a respected engineer and a steady, beloved colleague who spent his entire 33-year DEP career in the Bureau of Wastewater Treatment’s Marine Section — it was his home away from home. He will be deeply missed. RIP, Ray.

Fact: Fluoride is safe and effective at preventing cavities. Claims that water fluoridation may be harmful to people’s health are false. NYC has been adding fluoride to drinking water at low levels since 1966. Learn more about water fluoridation: on.nyc.gov/fluoride

This time of year, schools like I.S. 5 in #Queens travel to Ward Pound Ridge in Westchester to release their #TroutInTheClassroom, gaining a better understanding of our shared water resources. DEP's Gabe Lopez was on the scene to find out what trout names are trending and more!🐟

A gray day is no match for the opening of #escr, east side coastal resiliency, a glorious new park with amenities for NYers and flood protection for our city. Thanks NYC Parks NYC DDC NYC Water for your partnership!

Before arriving at NYC faucets, Neversink Reservoir water travels 6 miles to Rondout Reservoir, then heads south to the City via the 85-mile Delaware Aqueduct. Water passing over the spillway, shown during construction and as it appears now, returns to the Neversink River. #tbt
