The Western Intake Partnership (WIP) members support our communities and sustain their quality of life by providing reliable, high quality drinking water to the Triangle region.
About Us
Since 2014, Chatham County, the City of Durham, and the Town of Pittsboro have explored ways to meet their long-term water supply needs. The Triangle region is growing, and Jordan Lake is a vital part of the region’s water supply portfolio. The Partnership is implementing a plan to withdraw water from Jordan Lake. The water will then be treated and delivered to our water systems. To learn more about these projects, click on the link below.
