During their quarterly all-hands meeting, the Engineering Department recognized Katy Locke with their prized Wow Award for a job well done. Katy's willingness to step outside her regular role as a Project Controls Specialist to help with the procurement process and keep construction projects moving is an embodiment of the culture of dedication and teamwork that makes the District an incredible place to do meaningful work.

About us
About Us: The North Texas Municipal Water District (NTMWD) is a regional provider of water, wastewater and solid waste disposal services. The NTMWD serves a population of more than 2 million residents in communities across the north Texas counties of Collin, Dallas, Denton, Fannin, Grayson, Hopkins, Hunt, Kaufman, Rains, and Rockwall – a service territory covering 2,200 square miles. History: In 1946, local leaders from ten cities formed the Tri-County Reservoir Association (TCRA) to work with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to build Lavon Lake for flood control and water storage. By request of the TCRA, the Texas Legislature authorized the formation of the North Texas Municipal Water District (NTMWD) in 1951 to develop, finance, construct, and operate facilities to meet future water needs for the region. The 10 original cities - Farmersville, Forney, Garland, McKinney, Mesquite, Plano, Princeton, Rockwall, Royse City, and Wylie - became the original Member Cities, each with representation on our Board of Directors. Three additional cities were added including Richardson (1973), Allen (1998), and Frisco (2001). We also provide treated water service to 33 Customers (cities and other special/municipal utility districts) and indirectly serve 46 other communities who purchase water from our Member Cities and Customers. We began offering wastewater treatment services in the 1970s and solid waste disposal services in the 1980s. We also operate the largest man-made wetlands in the country - a vital water reuse project that helps to naturally polish treated wastewater, supplement our water supplies, and supports a valuable ecosystem to the region.

Today, the water industry celebrates the #SafeDrinkingWaterAct, which was signed into law on this day 50 years ago. This vital legislation ensures safe public drinking water supplies for the US and its territories, and our NTMWD team works around the clock to treat, monitor, and deliver safe water to over two million people in North Texas. Thank you to all of our dedicated professionals, scientists and operators for providing this essential service to protect public health and help our communities thrive.

NTMWD hosted an open house featuring the newly installed green stormwater infrastructure projects. The Board of Directors and staff took a brief tour and learned how the project manages stormwater and protects our watershed by slowing runoff so it can be filtered naturally through engineered soil and native plants. Conservation and stewardship of natural resources are always at the forefront of what we do here at the District. To learn more, visit: https://lnkd.in/gwMBXyU5

The 18th Annual North Texas Regional Water Symposium was a resounding success thanks to collaborative efforts of staff from the Dallas Water Utilities, Upper Trinity Regional Water District, Tarrant Regional Water District, and North Texas Municipal Water District. Guest speakers discussed conservation challenges and success stories. A panel of experts, including NTMWD Director of Planning R.J. Muraski, spoke about conservation as a long-term water supply strategy. It was a productive day of shared knowledge and regional cross-communication. Great job, team! We’re looking forward to next year’s event.

Congratulations to Watershed Manager David Cowan, who was recognized by the Texas State Soil and Water Conservation Board with the 2024 Friend of Conservation Award at their annual meeting. Cowan is a tireless advocate for protecting our streams and lakes whose work often involves collaborating with partners and stakeholders to address conservation-related issues and provide education resources to local communities. Cowan’s hard work and expertise were vital to developing and implementing the Lavon Lake Watershed Protection Plan, planning and installing the green stormwater infrastructure (GSI) at NTMWD headquarters in Wylie, and partnering with the City of McKinney for two GSI installations there as well. The Collin County Soil and Water Conservation District nominated Cowen for the state-level award after naming him the regional award recipient. Congratulations, David! https://lnkd.in/gskBXWnw
