Members of the Kiwanis Club of Alexandria recently heard a presentation from James A. Monroe of the Louisiana Department of Health Office of Public Health Engineering Services, Region 6 in Alexandria.

During the meeting, Monroe discussed water filtration systems and the treatment process used by regional water systems, including Water Works District 3 at Camp Livingston and surrounding areas.

Attendees learned about how drinking water is treated, tested and monitored to ensure it is safe for public use, along with additional information regarding local water infrastructure and operations.

The presentation was hosted by Tommy Joe Phillips as part of the club’s May programming.
