Why Washingtons Filtration Plant Stood Out in History
Washingtons water system transformed by the McMillan park filtration plant, completed in 1902, slashed typhoid deaths as millions of gallons flow daily through a 90 million gallon capacity facility. Operated by the War Department, it drew water from the Potomac at Great Falls, filtering mud and bacteria to provide cheaper, safer drinking water to District households. The project, begun after 1899 investigations, reduced health risks and cut operating costs, with the 1918 era showing low per million gallon costs.
