Where does the water in your faucet come from? In much of the City of Ithaca, drinking water comes from Six Mile Creek and then treated at the City of Ithaca Water Treatment Plant. Join the Community Science Institute for a tour of the City of Ithaca Water Treatment Plant with Lab Director Roxanna Johnston for a presentation and guided tour of how water is treated and supplied to residents and businesses in Ithaca and beyond. The tour will build upon basic concepts of water quality introduced during the “Build Your Own Water Filter” activity and provide kids with an understanding and appreciation of where their water comes from and how it is managed.
