Spring has officially sprung, which means that many residents will take up their trowels to refresh their landscapes. Gardeners can be good environmental stewards and prevent pollution in local water bodies by using water-wise gardening techniques. Here are some tips to help you get started:

  

  • Consider native plants, which thrive in our region with little help from chemicals and irrigation. Your local Cooperative Extension or nursery can help identify which natives to plant. Moss phlox, wild bergamot and butterfly weed are a great start.


  • Use organic mulch made of wood chips or shredded bark. Mulch helps to retain moisture, improve soil structure, prevent weed growth and reduce erosion. Gardening experts recommend using a mulch without dye.


  • Prepare soil with compost. Organic compost provides nutrients to the soil without the use of chemical fertilizers.

 

Follow the Service Authority’s recommended irrigation schedule to manage your outdoor water use. Visit this page

At the heart of the Service Authority’s critical infrastructure is the H.L. Mooney Advanced Water Reclamation Facility (AWRF) in Woodbridge. With a treatment capacity of 24 million gallons per day (MGD), the Mooney AWRF treats wastewater for the eastern half of Prince William County before discharging clean water into Neabsco Creek. The facility has been nationally recognized for its stellar operations for 14 straight years, putting it in the top tier of all wastewater plants nationally. 


Constructed in 1981, the Mooney AWRF had an initial treatment capacity of 12 MGD. In 1997, its first upgrade increased the capacity to 18 MGD, and in 2010 another enhancement improved wastewater treatment processes and increased the capacity to its current level.


Now the Mooney AWRF is undergoing facility-wide improvements through the end of 2027. This capital project will replace aging infrastructure, improving resiliency and treatment efficiency. With environmental stewardship elements such as solar panels, the Mooney AWRF project exemplifies the Service Authority’s commitment to the community and the environment.
