Water Star is designed to honor municipalities who do outstanding work to provide their communities with safe and abundant groundwater; lakes and streams protected from polluted runoff; maintain and enhance desirable aquatic habitats; and provide appropriate recreational opportunities for their citizenry. Starting on the 40th anniversary of Earth Day, Water Star will celebrate the work that top municipalities of all sizes do to protect and improve their water resources. Water Star believes municipalities who meet these challenges should be thanked and celebrated. Download the Water Star brochure (pdf) for more information.

First, to be publicly recognized for your good work through designation ceremonies and local and state-wide media releases.
Second, to promote your community as a responsible unit of government and a good place for people to live and businesses to locate and thrive.
Water Star is designed for all types of municipalities including cities, villages, counties and towns. We recognize that larger villages, cities and towns may have an easier time meeting the requirements to be designated a Water Star. The Water Star Steering Committee is interested in working with smaller and more rural municipalities to make this program work well for them.
