SUMMARY:Clean Water Act @50: History Talk With Philadelphia Water Historian Adam Levine
DESCRIPTION:Thanks largely to investments and regulations stemming from the Clean Water Act of 1972\, the Delaware and Schuylkill Rivers are now cleaner than they have been at any time in the past century. \nPhiladelphia Water Department Historian Adam Levine will look at how a rising tide of pollution in the 19th and early 20th centuries affected the well-being of the city’s residents and the region’s overall ecological health\, and how that tide has since abated. \nLevine will illustrate how tighter controls on industrial and sewage discharges in Philadelphia and in upstream communities have led to significant improvements in both the quality of the river water and the livability of the riverfronts. \nRegister for this free talk here.

SUMMARY:Clean Water Act @ 50: Virtually Tour the Plants that Saved Our Rivers
DESCRIPTION:This virtual tour will take virtual visitors behind the scenes at the City’s Southeast Water Pollution Control Plant to follow polluted wastewater step by step through the treatment plant until the cleaned wastewater is cleaner than the Delaware River itself and can be discharged safely to it. \nPhiladelphia’s sewers and the City’s three water pollution control plants\, including its award-winning Southeast Plant – all repaired\, rebuilt\, and/or expanded under the Clean Water Act – have played a major role in making the region’s streams\, small and large\, cleaner from the City’s northern limits to the mouth of the Delaware Bay. These streams 50 years ago were: polluted with sewage\, industrial waste\, and trash; unfit for recreation; unhealthy for habitation by aquatic wildlife; and\, barely useable as potable water supply. Today\, 50 years after passage of the Clean Water Act\, the region’s streams are valued by the public for their abundant natural resources\, for the many recreational opportunities they offer\, and as the source of drinking water that is potable and tastes good. \nRegister here.
