Southern Nevada Water Authority: Providing Water Solutions in Las Vegas

Slide Note

The Southern Nevada Water Authority, in collaboration with the Las Vegas Valley Water District, serves as the municipal water provider for the city of Las Vegas. They process and treat a substantial amount of water through treatment and return flow credits, managing alternative water resources due to drought conditions. The organization operates various water monitoring equipment at different sites to ensure efficient water management, including GOES transmitters for surface and groundwater data transmission. Additionally, they monitor irrigation wells for water flow, level, and pressure. With a focus on sustainability and reliability, the Southern Nevada Water Authority plays a crucial role in maintaining water resources in the region.
