As a joint venture with the City of Charlottesville, the Albemarle County Service Authority’s Carwash Certification Program (CCP) aims to promote and recognize water efficiency in local businesses. Working with the carwashes, the City and ACSA have modeled a revised program after ones that have been established in San Antonio, TX and Denver, CO. In order to achieve certification, each carwash facility must meet certain criteria, particularly in regards to the maximum amount of potable water used for each type of wash offered. For the facilities served by the ACSA, certification is also a requirement to remain in operation during any future drought restrictions.

The complete detail of the program can be found in Section 18 of our Rules and Regulations.
