The Paris BPU Water Department serves as the sole source of water to the City of Paris and is the wholesale water provider for several surrounding water utilities. The department was established in the early 1950’s and continues to provide residents with some of the purest drinking water in the state.

Today, our system produces 2.5 million gallons of potable (drinkable) water per day during the summer and 2 million gallons per day the rest of the year. With the completion of the new Water Treatment Plant in 2020, the capacity has grown to 4 million per day and has the ability to add an additional 2 million in capacity as our community continues to grow.
