The section utilizes three Countyowned treatment plants, 12 booster stations and 12 water towers to process and deliver water. The County also can provide water, through appropriate agreements, to the other smaller utilities as required. This section is able to monitor and direct water throughout the system's four pressure zones via radio telemetry. The Maryland Department of the Environment generally recognizes the Abingdon Water Plant as a model for all other systems.
