Warren Water recognizes Imagine a Day Without Water Day

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. – Warren Water is teaming up with the Value of Water Coalition to bring awareness to living without quality tap water.

The collaboration is in recognition of Imagine a Day Without Water Day on Thursday, October 17.

The Value of Water Coalition provides the nation with education on how water is a vital resource and needs investment throughout the country and the state. In 2016, the Kentucky Water Resources Board was created during the 2016 Session of the Kentucky General Assembly.

The purpose of the board is to provide state regulators with ways to improve water use efficiency and development of water conservation strategies.

“It is critical and more evident today that our water resources continue to be a focus across the state. Kentucky Rural Water Association partners with water and wastewater utilities across the state to help them protect and manage this valuable resource. We continue to make great strides,” said Kentucky Rural Water Association Executive Director Scott Young.

“Warren Water is honored to join the Value of Water Coalition and Kentucky’s Water Resources Board and hundreds of other organizations around the country who are participating in the tenth annual Imagine a Day Without Water. A day without water would be a public health and safety crisis. The fight against viruses would seem impossible. It means no water to wash your hands, shower or flush the toilet, no water to drink or cook with, and no water to do laundry or dishes. A single nationwide day without water service would make it impossible for doctors, firefighters, and farmers to serve our communities. It’s great to see continued proactive steps for the future of water infrastructure at both the state and federal level,” said Jacob Cuarta, Warren County Water District general manager.
