JEFFERSON CITY - Missouri American Water is investing in a new filter and chemical feed facility for its 11,000 clients in Jefferson City. This is part of a $425 million investment the company is making to upgrade water and wastewater systems statewide.  The new facility will replace a filter and chemical feed facility on West High Street that's been used since 1925. Operations manager Brent Haas said the filter and chemical feed facility is an integral part of the larger water facility.  'The filters themselves filter the river water and are one of the final stages of water treatment before we consider it [safe to drink] and put it out to the system,' Haas said.
