Northampton MA
The city of Northampton draws most of its raw water from two surface supplies, the Mountain Street Reservoir in Williamsburg (since 1905) and the Ryan Reservoir in Whately (since 1970). In 2008, the new Mountain Street Water Treatment Plant went on line. With a maximum design flow of 6.5 MGD, this plant incorporates alum addition followed by clarification (Siemens Tricon, HDPE media), GAC filtration and free chlorination.
