Annual Networking Event Featured Sponsor: Metropolitan Council

Clean water and a clean environment are essential to a healthy life, and Metropolitan Council Environmental Services (MCES) is committed to both. As a division of the Metropolitan Council, MCES treats wastewater for 111 cities and townships with 2.7 million people in the Twin Cities metro area, monitors air and water quality, and plans for a long-range water supply to meet future demand.

The work of MCES is guided by values of excellence, inclusiveness, integrity, respect, and commitment, clearly seen in action across the organization. The organization consistently achieves near-perfect compliance with federal and state water discharge standards while holding customer rates to 40% below the national average.  Purchased energy costs have been cut in the wastewater system, reducing climate impacts. MCES strives to have the voices informing their work reflect the community served, and have been recognized by the Governor’s Office for efforts in evolving toward a more diverse and inclusive workplace.
