ENGAGEMENTAND OUTREACH PROJECT OF THE YEAR
The California Water Environment Association (CW EA) has awarded Central San the Statewide First
Place 2020 Community Engagement and Outreach Project of the Year for the Virtual Treatment Plant
Tour and Outreach Program.
The Virtual Treatment Plant Tour Program was developed in-house by the Communications Division staff
during the pandemic and shelter-in-place orders. It provides customers, schools, and community groups
an opportunity to take a behind-the-scenes tour of Central San's facilities and treatment process from the
comfort of their own homes. The program has grown to now be a resource and educational tool for
university engineering faculty and students across the country, hopefully inspiring future wastewater
engineers.
