Platt, Water Conservation Coordinator Mission, Purpose, Program In an effort to manage Town water usage, a water conservation and demand management program was begun in 1996. This program will produce several benefits, including delaying future construction or expansion of water and wastewater treatment facilities, reducing the amount of treated wastewater discharged into the Neuse River, extending the useful life of the Jordan Lake drinking water supply, and conserving a limited natural resource. Secondary benefits include reduced management costs and energy savings due to less water being transported, treated and distributed.
