In addition to owning and operating utilities, United Water operates municipal systems through public-private partnerships and contract agreements. A strategic alliance with Suez Lyonnaise des Eaux, an international leader in water and wastewater services and water technology, further strengthens United Water's capabilities. Founded as Hackensack Water Company in 1869, United Water became the nation's second largest investor-owned water services company following a merger with GWC Corporation in 1994. The company is aggressively pursuing growth of its core water and wastewater businesses through public-private partnerships, strategic alliances, contract services, investments and acquisitions. United Water's common stock trades on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) under the symbol UWR. The company has paid continuous cash dividends on its common stock since 1886. United Water seeks to be the premier water services company in the United States. "Premier" designation is never ours to claim or own. We earn it only through the eyes of our customers, our employees, our shareholders and the communities where we operate. And every day we must earn it all over again. Our corporate logo, the water star, symbolizes our mission to be premier. The individual drops represent what we strive to provide our customers--pure, clean water and stellar service. United Water owns and operates water and wastewater utilities throughout the U.S and Canada. The company also operates water and wastewater systems for municipal clients through a variety of public-public partnership contract structures. United Water also operates industrial systems in certain locations.
