About Butler Water
At Butler Water, we take great pride in our role of ensuring high-quality water services to homes and businesses throughout the county. Clean, safe drinking water is a mainstay of healthy, vibrant communities, and we are committed to ensuring these services are affordable and available to our region now and in the future.
With a diverse blend of residential, agricultural, commercial and industrial customers, Butler Water works diligently to serve over 5,000 water customers with an average of 750,000 gallons of water each day. Butler Water maintains over 520 miles of pipeline, 16 pumping stations and 15 tanks throughout a 440-square-mile area.
Butler Water draws its water from the Green River, a surface water source that flows through Butler County. In our Morgantown water treatment plant, we purify the water, and test the purity an average of 1,000,000 times a year.
Butler Water leadership works closely with the economic development community to keep pace with changing needs. This includes identifying growth projections and industry needs, brainstorming ways to meet those needs, and ensuring adequate and reliable water services.
We regularly compare system capacities to existing and projected customer usage to determine where improvements are needed. The challenge is not only to plan for these improvements, but also find the most economical funding sources in order to keep rates as low as possible for our customers.
