Advisory Board members can traditionally look forward to our annual Muniworks workshop to discuss the relevant issues facing MWRA rate payers as well as water and sewer utilities. This year, however, has been anything but traditional. The ongoing pandemic prevented our gathering from happening in-person but could not interrupt the important conversations related to PFAS from taking place. This year, we invite you to attend Muniworks from from a safe, socially-distant location by enjoying a series of interviews on the topic of PFAS with guests offering a variety of perspectives. Additionally, we encourage you to review the MWRA PFAS Resource Page and MWRA PFAS Water Testing Page.
