Drawing from the Delaware River, Trenton Water Works treats 28 million gallons of water daily and sends it to the Pennington Reservoir for distribution to more than 200,000 consumers. But water stored in the 150-year-old uncovered reservoir has been plagued by algae and midges. And plans to fix myriad issues at the treatment plant have become mired in Trenton's municipal political dysfunction.
