DELCORA

Happy Friday DELCORA community! Finding beauty at the plant today. Everyone have a great weekend 🌇

As an active member of the Rotary Club of Chester, PA, DELCORA was excited to be a part of the semi-annual cleanup at Chester's Rotary Park on June 2nd. The park, which sits at the city center, on the corner of 4th & Avenue of the States, received a plant bed refresh by members of our team and Rotary Club of Chester members. The existing Lending Library was freshened up with new books, new paint, and hinges, ready for readers to visit and exchange books all summer.

Happy Sunday! DELCORA provides recycled water to neighboring industries to lower their reliance on the public water supply 🫡

Regular inspections of the DELCORA plant and remote stations are in place to ensure that the wastewater treatment process runs effectively and efficiently

DELCORA uses industry leading VAC Trucks, which are equipped with tanks, pumps, and hoses to assist our team members in being able to inspect the miles of sewage pipes the we are responsible for maintaining across 46 municipalities in Delaware County.

Last year DELCORA hosted the EPWPCOA plant tour and in attendance were over 300 industry professionals including other wastewater utilities and operators, engineering consultants, and manufacturers. This was a fantastic event that highlighted the Western Regional Treatment Plant, the wastewater services that DELCORA provides, and the people that make it all happen.

The Eastern Pennsylvania Water Pollution Control Operators Association (EPWPCOA) is a professional organization that supports wastewater and environmental professionals by providing training, education, and networking opportunities

Happy Sunday! Effective wastewater treatment contributes to the health of our community by removing pathogens, toxic chemicals, and nutrients from sewage, and preventing waterborne diseases like cholera and dysentery

DELCORA hosted Chester Health Department and Health EducatED Interns who asked many questions about how effectively processing wastewater contributes to community health.

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who spent time with DELCORA at the Chester River Fest earlier this month. We love speaking face to face with our community!

The annual Chester River Fest brought energy, education, culture, and community together at Subaru Park in Chester. Hosted by the Partnership for the Delaware Estuary(PDE), Chester Economic Development Authority(CEDA), and the City of Chester, this year’s event reminded us that protecting our waterways is everybody’s business. From interactive exhibits and environmental education to hands-on activities and community resources, guests of all ages learned simple but powerful ways to care for our rivers, streams, and neighborhoods.
