Water and Water Supply

Message from the CommissionerCommissioner Robert Cross

In 1996, when Mayor Jennings appointed me Albany’s seventh Water Commissioner, he issued a clear and simple charge: “Protect and preserve Albany’s water. It’s the best in the nation, and I want to make sure it continues to serve our City for decades to come.”

Today, I am proud to report that the Albany water system has never been in better shape. With the Mayor’s full support, we have made tremendous strides to upgrade, modernize and maintain our aging system, which, I am confident, will continue to serve our City’s homes and businesses well into the 21st Century and beyond.

We have been able to accomplish more than anyone ever thoug
