The celebration will take place at 1:00 p.m. on the facility grounds at 80 East Hanover Ave. in Cedar Knolls. Morristown Mayor Donald Cresitello, who championed the effort to install the system, reports that it will be green for the environment and green for Morristown's taxpayers.

"By reducing energy costs at the wastewater treatment facility, and bringing new revenue from sales of Solar Renewable Energy Certificates, the system will pay for itself within 10 years."
