Words we got back

Expanding Partnership 2014

  • Department of Environmental Quality , State of Oregon

    "Using recycled water will become increasingly important in our region as demands on our water resources increase."
  • Environmental Protection Agency, United States

    "Pure Water Brew is an excellent example of our ability to take water that is otherwise thought of as waste and put it to direct positive value as a beer."

    "There is no reason in the world to judge water by its history.We are very much focused on what’s the quality of the water for the use to which it will be put." Ken Kopocis · EPA Deputy Administrator Office of Water (2015)

A Happy Experience

All water is reused, mother nature knows this. Now it's time we know this too.

Andy Duyck · Chairman of the Board Clean Water Services
