HISTORY The Delaware Aqueduct is an Aqueduct that takes water from Rondout , Neversink , Pepacton and Cannonsville Reservoirs to the Kensico Reservoir in Westchester County , just north of the Bronx . This feed forms the bulk of New York City 's drinking water supply. It was constructed between 1939 and 1945, and carries approximately half of NYC's 1.5 billion US gallons per day (66 m³/s) water demand. Recently, concerns have arisen about possible leaks in the pipeline. SEE ALSO New York City's Water Supply System |
