Although water is one of our most critical resources, it is often misused and abused. The City of Columbia is dedicated to providing an adequate supply of clean drinking water for both current and future generations. You can do your part, too. Our educational campaign – Save Water, Save Money –  is a great way to learn more about your water and how you can make a positive difference.
You may not often realize that only tap water keeps us healthy, fights fires, supports our economy, and provides us with a high quality of life to enjoy. Each of us can help ensure that we continue to have these benefits for many years to come by practicing water conservation in our everyday activities.
Water conservation is no longer just related to drought; it is necessary as a way of life all year. It is simple, inexpensive, and most importantly our personal responsibility.
