In the mid-1800s, Eli Whitney II organized the New Haven Water Company with a mission: To make life
better for the people of Greater New Haven.
One hundred seventy years later, the Regional Water Authority (RWA) continues to build on our founder's
legacy with a bold vision for the next 170 years. From state-of-the-art water treatment and monitoring, to
advanced metering, to enhanced customer service, to the protection of our watershed land and innovative,
sustainable operations, the RWA is committed to investing in infrastructure and technology.
At the RWA, the drive to innovate is inspired by a single ambition – to ensure that the most vital of life-
sustaining resources remains the most reliable, affordable and purest it can be for all our communities.
Because like Eli Whitney II, we believe there's no greater purpose than to make life better for others, today
and tomorrow, by delivering water for life.
Building toward the next 170 years.
