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 and Water Treatment Plant Lab Director, Roxanna Johnston, for a presentation and guided tour of how water from Six Mile Creek is treated and supplied to Ithaca residents and businesses. 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.

Where does water go when you flush the toilet or drain your bathtub? Join the Community Science Institute for a presentation and tour of the Ithaca Area Wastewater Treatment Facility (IAWWTF) with a facility operator. This program will build on basic concepts of water quality introduced during the “Build Your Own Water Filter” activity and provide kids with a sense of how water used by Ithaca residents is treated before it is discharged (back) into Cayuga Lake.
