Metro Water Services (MWS) provides public water (treatment and distribution) and wastewater (collection and treatment) services to customers located in Nashville/Davidson County and portions of five surrounding counties. We provide stormwater (including urban forestry) and waste services (trash and recycling) for customers located in Nashville/Davidson County (526 square miles). The public drinking water system is also a vital part of the fire protection in the community.
Along with these responsibilities, MWS also manages the Metro Nashville District Energy System (DES). DES delivers heat, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) to buildings in the downtown corridor through a series of closed-circuit pipe systems carrying chilled water and steam.
