November 2, 2007—Marking the 35th anniversary of the Clean Water Act in October, the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced the recipients of the 2007 National Clean Water Act Recognition Awards, which recognize municipalities and industries for outstanding and creative technological achievements in wastewater treatment and pollution abatement programs.
These awards represent first and second place national award recipients for demonstrated outstanding project and program water quality achievements in four categories: operations and maintenance, exemplary biosolids management, national pre-treatment, and stormwater management. Winners were chosen based on water quality compliance screenings and a satisfactory environmental quality record.
