YLWD was honored to host members of the delegation from Yeoju, South Korea on Wednesday, February 5th. YLWD Vice President, Gene Hernandez and General Manager, Mark Toy welcomed our guests and shared a presentation about the journey of water, where it comes from, and how we treat it at our flagship J. Wayne Miller, Ph.D. Water Treatment Plant. Also in attendance was Mayor Janice Lim from the City of Yorba Linda, and Ms. Linette Choi, Chief of Staff to Congresswoman Young Kim.
During the visit, the delegation stopped by YLWD’s Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) Room, where they were able to see how we monitor and distribute safe and reliable drinking water throughout our service area. Delegation guests also took a guided tour of our PFAS Water Treatment Plant, where YLWD’s talented Chief Water Systems Operator pointed out the process of how PFAS is removed out of our groundwater.
