In 2017, a group of Waterford property owners decided to apply for a Loudoun County Community Water Program Feasibility Study. This program analyses a community's current conditions and and offers technical viability of conceptual solutions (options). It creates a detailed systematic approach to solving existing and potential future water issues. Waterford was accepted for this study in November 2019.
