Metro Water Recovery (Metro) supports our communities through sponsorships to local and regional non-profit organizations that align with our mission: to protect the region’s health and environment by cleaning water and recovering resources.
As the largest wastewater treatment provider in the Rocky Mountain West, the water we clean is suitable for agriculture, aquatic life, recreation, and water supply. In partnership with 61 local governments, including cities, sanitation districts, and water and sanitation districts, we serve approximately 2.2 million people across an 805 square-mile service area.
