Protecting the Community

Every year, AlexRenew cleans more than 13 billion gallons of wastewater for over 300,000 customers, adhering to some of the highest standards in the country. AlexRenew maximizes the reuse of all available resources in our processes to create a sustainable operation that saves money and reduces greenhouse gases. 

Award-Winning Stewardship

Some of the water industry's most influential organizations have recognized AlexRenew's efforts to sustainably manage its operations, minimize its energy usage, and reuse or recycle valuable resources. AlexRenew is dedicated to responsible practices in sustainability, and is proud of its role as a leader in outstanding environmental stewardship in the City of Alexandria. 

Monitoring and Measuring Our Success

The City of Alexandria and AlexRenew share a goal of protecting our waterways. Our onsite laboratory conducts approximately 24,000 analyses annually to ensure we are meeting or exceeding environmental regulatory compliance requirements.

AlexRenew's Environmental Management System (EMS) implements best management practices for pollution prevention, waste management, regulatory compliance, and hazard mitigation to reduce incidents while improving AlexRenew’s reputation, regulatory performance and environmental footprint. We include EMS and Stormwater Awareness Training in new hire orientation, and all employees receive annual refresher training to recognize, prevent, and manage environmental impacts. 

As a Sustainability Partner of Virginia's Environmental Excellence Program, AlexRenew continues to demonstrate our continued commitment to go above and beyond compliance and embrace pollution prevention in our day-to-day activities.
