City of Ithaca's Water Treatment Plant Information

The City of Ithaca Water Treatment Plant has been proudly serving the City of Ithaca and a few surrounding areas since 1903. Located along a reservoir on Six Mile Creek, the facility provides safe, clean water to over 35,000 residents in the city area. The plant was recently rebuilt and finished in 2017. Now, the City boasts a large membrane filtration system that provides consistently filtered water through 0.1 micron pores. This is advanced water technology that is not yet common among the water treatment industry. The water treatment plant is staffed 24/7, everyday of the year, to monitor and supply the citizens of Ithaca with quality water.
