Superior Water Quality Controls MWW water surpasses all federal and state standards for water quality. The utility provides continuous sampling of its water. While the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources require testing for 90 regulated contaminants, the Milwaukee Water Works tests for over 500 different contaminants each year. View our most recent Consumer Confidence Report. The multiple barriers of the ozone disinfection and dual media filtration treatment process allow ever more stringent regulations to be met without changes to treatment operations. Yearly improvements in the water main flushing program, including a new technique called Unidirectional Flushing, represents another tool to ensure that distribution system water quality remains high.
