Central Elmore Water and Sewer Authority - CEW&SA Central Elmore Water and Sewer Authority strives to deliver safe drinking water

05/30/2026

When people think of “safe water,” they often think it’s simple.

But safe water requires constant monitoring, regular testing, proper treatment, and well-maintained infrastructure. It depends on trained professionals who understand regulations, respond to issues quickly, and ensure systems operate the way they should every single day.

Behind every glass of clean water is a system that has to work without fail.

Safe water isn’t automatic. It’s built, maintained, and protected.

6am update - It appears crews got home about 3am. They started work at 7am Friday for normal business and finished at 3am Saturday morning for the leak. The repair was in a bad location and the weather was not ideal. It was fixed before they went home. Thanks for being patient while we made the repair. We never know how long it will take to repair a main. Even after we wait on locates and dig it up, things can change. Each repair is different.

7pm update - Crews are currently making the repair at the corner or Hwy 9 and Boswell Rd.

Techs are in route to the Mt. Hebron and Middle Road looking for a leak. We are getting calls about low/no pressures in the area.

🚧 Big progress is happening at the CEW&SA Water Treatment Plant! 🚧
CEW&SA has completed numerous pilot studies over the years to determine which treatment option is best to address our taste and odor issues caused by the compounds geosmin and MIB. These compounds are naturally occurring in our water source, Lake Martin, and research has shown that they are not harmful, but they do contribute to the unpleasant taste and odor our customers have been experiencing for years. From the pilot studies, GAC was determined to be the best treatment option. 💧
In 2025, the Board approved CEW&SA management to go to bid on the project. Associated Mechanical Contractors (AMCO), out of Montgomery, was selected and has been on site at the water treatment plant for about a month now. They have made great progress so far, and some big things happened this week. The GAC vessels were delivered and set on the new pad yesterday! This was the first big step toward better-tasting and better-smelling water.

There is still more work ahead, including:
🔹 Installation of a new holding tank
🔹 Construction of a pumping station
🔹 New piping and system connections

Contractors anticipate beginning testing of the new filtration system by late summer. ‼️

The biggest part of this project is the GAC, but there are other aspects of the project that will ensure reliability and longevity for many years to come at the filter plant.
More great news is that ADEM has indicated this project should be fully funded through grant funds, but there is still work to be done. While nothing has been given to CEW&SA in writing, EPA review panels have preliminarily approved CEW&SA to receive the grant.
Thank you to our customers for being patient with us during this process. We look forward to once again serving you the best-tasting and best-smelling water in Alabama. More information about the project, geosmin, MIB, and related topics can be found on our website. www.cewsa.com
