Show Notes

Central Iowa Water Works is preparing for a significant increase in water demand, projected to rise from 125.5 million to 208 million gallons daily by 2050. To meet this demand, the regions member communities are investing in key expansions, including a $40 million reverse osmosis project at the Grimes plant, set to be operational by 2030. Additionally, plans for a new west water treatment plant, capable of adding 12 million gallons of capacity by 2032, have been approved. Long-term strategies, such as expanding the Saylorville plant around 2045, are also being considered to ensure a steady water supply.
