Hampton Bays Civic Association: Meet your Water Superintendant

There is an old Appalachian
saying: You cannot get the water to clear up until you get the pigs’ outta the
creek!

Today
the pigs are long out of the creek.  Many
scientists, environmentalists, conservationists and Robert King, Water District
Superintendent, keep a watchful eye on the water of Hampton Bays.

It was only a little over a year
ago, January 8th, 2013 to be exact, that Robert King stepped away
from his long time responsibility as Leader of the Water District Maintenance
Crew to accept his appointment as Water District Superintendent.

With
the title came the obligation to pump, treat, store, and distribute potable
water; it is no small responsibility to be the man bearing the burden for
delivering high quality drinking water to homes and businesses of a water district
as large as Hampton Bays.  That is a 24/7
job 365 days a year with staff on call at all times.

This
month, a year following his appointment, Robert King will appear in public
forum at the Hampton Bays Civic Association meeting; Meet and Greet begins at 6: 30 p.m. and the meeting starts at 7:00
p.m. on Monday, January 27th at the Southampton Town Community
Center, 25 Ponquogue Avenue to speak about his first year as Superintendent; tell
us some of the history of our water district, his future plans for the Hampton
Bays Water District, and, compare bottled water to Hampton Bays drinking water
for taste, legality, and cost.

Find
out for yourself what it is that makes the water coming out of your faucet as
good as it is, and discover the man you trust your family’s water welfare to,
Robert King, Water District Supervisor, Hampton Bays.

You’re expected;
we’ll save you a seat.
