Water Quality Update 4 from Mike Hopf, Water Superintendent, Village of Saugerties
Monday, June 29, 2026
Over the past several weeks, the Village of Saugerties Water Department has been actively addressing the taste and odor conditions affecting our water supply. We would like to provide residents with an update on our progress. Since our last advisory, several additional measures have been implemented, including:
- Implementation of sodium permanganate treatment at the water treatment plant to improve oxidation of taste and odor-causing compounds.

Welcome to Our Village
Nestled in the Hudson Valley, Saugerties borders the Hudson River to the east, and offers views of the storied and scenic Catskill Mountains to the west.
Our Village is historic ... we have the first nationally registered Historic Village Business District.
Our Village is vibrant ... alive with destination businesses, with cuisine from down-home to high-end, with a world-class library, boutiques, two bookstores, a pickle store, multiple/tempting bakeries, a lighthouse that is a hyper-popular B&B, an upscale wine shop, a great bagel shop (to die for!) and beloved hardware, shoe (ever heard of a "pedorthist"?), chocolate, book and hot dog shops.
The Village has always had a strong arts and culture core. On that strong base, newly arrived professionals have added a number of enjoyable art, music and dance events to our Village's mix.
So yeah, we're proud of our blend of history and also of how we lean into the future. If you're here, find out more about your Village on this website. If you haven't had the pleasure of a visit to our Village, the welcome mat is out. Come and explore!
