The water utility company\u2019s mascot of, Wayne Drop, fell from the sky in 2017, with design inspiration from \u2018Water – Use it Wisely\u2019, a statewide organization focused on water conservation. The Wayne Drop mascot represents water\u2019s cycle and how to preserve the natural resource. Since Phoenix water must travel through 7,000 miles of pipes before reaching a consumer\u2019s home; once it reaches its destination, it must not be wasted!

Representing Phoenix Water\u2019s slogan of \u201cWhat We Do with Your Poo,\u201d Loo Poo is the go-to guy for wastewater and sustainability understanding. Loo Poo stands behind the good, the bad, and the stinky waste that comes from toilets, drains, and sinks. He also flushes the public with knowledge on Phoenix Water\u2019s wastewater treatment process. Special to the City of Phoenix\u2019s water system, reclaimed water is pumped from the 91st Avenue Wastewater Treatment Plant over to the Tres Rios Wetlands, where it rehabilitates around 700 acres surrounding the Salt River. Since the majority of Phoenix\u2019s wastewater is recycled, the Loo Poo mascot is vital in promoting safe and reusable wastewater.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
