Forsyth Co. dedicates expanded water treatment plant

CUMMING - Forsyth County recently dedicated the newly expanded county water treatment plant. An open house was held as part of the ceremony.

The county opened the Water Treatment Plant, which is located on Antioch Road, in 2000. The expansion features technology that increases the total capacity that can be treated at the plant to 28 million gallons daily.

"In addition to enabling us to treat additional water, this expansion allows for increased efficiency, saving both water and money," Forsyth County Director of Water and Sewer Tim Perkins said. "It will no doubt serve our citizens well for years to come."

The expansion project was completed under budget, according to county officials.
