Water Department
Without a source of clean water none of us would be able to live in Trinidad. Providing treated water that meets State standards is one of the most important municipal services the City provides.
Collecting, treating, storing, and distributing water is a complicated expensive operation requiring trained personnel on call 24 hours a day. Below are links to important topics about Trinidad's water system.
