Gregory Williams
Domestic Water Division Modesto Irrigation District - Employee

"Staff from MID's water treatment plant participated in the "Top-Op's Challenge" hosted by CA-NV American Water Works Association (AWWA) in San Francisco. This was MID's first time participating in the competition which is intended to be a fast-paced, question and answer style tournament to recognize and promote excellence and professionalism in all aspects of water treatment plant operations. The MID team included Jessica Stillwell, Damon Wilkens, Christian Irigoyen and Salena Estrada. After a second place finish in the early preliminary round, the MID team swept the competition taking 1st place in back-to-back rounds securing a spot in the championship round. The championship round came down to the wire and MID ended up finishing in second place and secured an invitation to the national competition. This was a great showing for our employees, MID and moreover the community as a whole."
