District hosts delegates from Costa Rica
05/26/2017
Yesterday the District welcomed two delegates from Costa Rica to our Wastewater Treatment Center. Pictured here is our General Manager Nick Menninga with Alvaro Araya-Garcia and Manuel Lopez-Fonseca from Costa Rica’s water and wastewater agency, Instituto Costarricense de Acueductos y Alcantarillados, or AyA for short. They toured our treatment plant and learned about our efforts to become a net-zero energy facility. Costa Rica strives to operate on 100% green energy, and is interested in Downers Grove Sanitary District’s approaches to being energy efficient and producing renewable energy.
