The Department of Natural Resources celebrates Drinking Water Week by holding a poster contest in conjunction with the Missouri chapter of the American Water Works Association.  All Missouri students in the fifth grade were eligible to participate.  Winners were chosen by a vote of Public Drinking Water Branch staff and are not selected solely on artistic ability, but also on how well they convey a message of celebrating tap water and demostrating what tap water can do for us. We have selected our 2013 winners!  

A safe, reliable water supply is critical to the success of any community. The department helps ensure Missourians receive safe drinking water by assisting public water systems in compliance with safe drinking water laws and regulations.
