“We take great pride in our Clarion team's dedication to safety,” said Northwest Director of Operations Jon Natale. “During the past two decades, our employees have consistently operated at a treatment facility that employs heavy machinery, chemicals, and electrical equipment throughout the entire distribution system without a single recordable incident.”

During the incident-free timespan, the local team has processed more than 11 billion gallons of drinking water. The Clarion Water Treatment Plant is responsible for treating and supplying water to more than 10,000 residents in the boroughs of Clarion, Shippenville, Sligo, and Strattanville and the Township of Clarion, as well as portions of Elk, Farmington, Highland, Knox, Limestone, Monroe, Paint, and Piney townships, Clarion County.
