In honor of World Water Day, NEW Water is proud to announce that the 2026 NEW Watershed Champion Award was presented to Oneida Nation’s Environmental Area.
NEW Water held a quarterly Municipal & Industrial partner meeting, with topics including project updates, sewer leak, PFAS, and more.
As part of our ongoing pollution prevention efforts, NEW Water voluntarily continued sampling at its two treatment facilities in 2025 on a quarterly basis. NEW Water also continued its PFAS monitoring into the collection system (sewershed** outside of the treatment facilities –see NEW Water service area map) to identify possible sources of PFAS. NEW Water is not currently subject to the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources’ (WDNR) PFAS surface water criteria or monitoring requirements. After a quality assurance/quality control review, an annual data summary has been compiled.
