Environmental Commitments

Online Office Hours
Out of concern for the safety of our employees and community, Denver Water has suspended in-person office hours and events indefinitely.
We do offer online one-on-one appointments with our project representatives who can answer your questions about the Gross Reservoir Expansion Project. We invite you to search for an available time and book an online meeting here.
We look forward to speaking with you!
