ReWa

ReWa, short for Renewable Water Resources, treats wastewater for Greenville County and parts of several neighboring Upstate counties. Its nine water resource recovery facilities clean about 41 million gallons of wastewater a day and return the treated water to local waterways, supported by roughly 465 miles of collection lines. The utility has operated since 1925.

Most Greenville-area households see ReWa charges as a separate line on their Greenville Water bill, while customers near North Greenville University and in Anderson County are directed to ReWa customer service for their rates. Businesses and industrial customers can find sewer use regulations and permit resources online, and tours of the facility can be scheduled. Operations run 24 hours a day, and a separate emergency line handles urgent problems.
