Irrigation Contractor Training Event

On February 11, 2025, the Port Washington Water District, alongside the Roslyn Water District and Irrigation Association of New York,.hosted its fourth annual Irrigation Contractor Training Event. The goal of this yearly event is to educate irrigation contractors on the most effective ways to help customers in the area conserve water and follow the District’s mandatory 2025 irrigation requirements. This year’s event was especially crucial, as both Districts now require all automatic irrigation systems within their service territories to be fitted with a smart irrigation controller.

We thank all of the irrigation contractors who joined us for this year’s event. Together, we explored innovative conservation practices, including our Smart Irrigation Requirement. This partnership is a great example of the impact we can have when we work together.

PWWD Commissioner Mindy Germain
PWWD Superintendent Paul Prignano
Roslyn Water District Chairman Michael Kosinski
RWD Commissioner William Costigan
RWD Commissioner Dr. Sanford Klein
