Petition for a Feasibility Study to Consider Public Ownership of Rockland’s Water Supply

Did you know…?

• According to the NY State Comptroller, Rockland County had one of the highest water rates in the state.
• Rockland’s major water system has had chronic water quality problems – in addition to water pressure problems which have led to increased cost and even loss of life.
• Suez Water NY, Rockland County’s major water supplier, is owned by a multinational corporation.
• Suez is currently in the process of selling our water system to Veolia – an even larger multinational corporation.
• Join Rockland County water advocates in asking our new Governor and other elected officials to order a feasibility study to consider whether it is in Rockland’s best interest to create an independent local public water authority rather than continuing private, corporate ownership of our water.
