This one comes from our friends at the Bronx River Alliance:

Come see how drinking water gets filtered on a municipal level. The Millwood Water Treatment Plant draws its water from the Catskill Aqueduct, the same pipe that feeds NYC from its pristine reservoirs in the Catskill mountains. The plant uses a 4 step process to treat its water. Come witness this modern facility for yourself and get a preview of the kind of filtration plant that NYC is constructing to treat water from the Croton Reservoir. A copy of a photo ID is required to register. Preference is given to educators and ecology workers.
