Water Treatment Facility in Las Vegas

“Built in 1971, the Alfred Merritt Smith Water Treatment Facility currently treats most of the valley’s drinking water. Improvements to the facility enhanced the plant’s reliability and increased capacity to be able to treat 600 million gallons a day.

“The addition of ozone treatment in 2003 put the facility on the cutting-edge of water treatment technology.

“After a complex filtration process, water sent to the Alfred Merritt Smith Water Treatment Facility is treated with chlorine gas, a disinfectant, to protect it on its way to customer’s homes.”
