Sources of water
The water that OCWA delivers meets or exceeds all
government environmental standards.
OCWA delivers water from three sources:
-
Otisco Lake, which is treated by OCWA itself. this is our main source.
-
Lake Ontario, which is treated by the Metropolitan Water Board (MWB) and sold wholesale to OCWA
-
Skaneateles Lake, which is treated by the Syracuse Water Department and also sold to OCWA.
Customers may also get a mixture of these waters. For
example, OCWA can deliver water to the City of
Syracuse when the City's supply is running low.
