As an extension of our weekly "This Week in Westchester - The Podcast" we welcome you to Westchester, Explained. In this special long-form series we take you deeper into the headlines, decisions and policies shaping Westchester County and their impact on your family, your neighborhood and your future. Here we slow it down, dig in and bring in the people doing the work, and we explain not just what the County is doing, but why it matters.

Because government should be clear. This is your County. 

And this is Westchester, Explained. 

Today, we're focusing on Westchester's septic systems and water quality.

Joining for this in-depth conversation is Planning & Water Quality Coordinator Millie Magraw from the Westchester County Department of Planning -- who will discuss her work, while helping to clarify the newly launched $3.5 Million program to lower costs for septic repairs and protecting our drinking water that's part of the NYC watershed -- and why that matters.

Let's dive in.
