Water Week 2024: Empowering Local Solutions for Aging Infrastructure and Beyond

Energy Water And Development Corp. (OTCQB:EAWD) March 27, 2024 /energy-water.com/

Empowering Local Water Solutions through National Support is crucial for addressing aging water infrastructure. Despite the landmark commitment of the Infrastructure Investment & Jobs Act (IIJA), funding remains inadequate. Annual appropriations leave critical projects hanging, straining local utilities and hindering compliance with regulations.

Protecting against Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) is paramount. Remediation costs are steep, with utilities facing a 60% increase in operational expenses due to new regulations. Source control is advocated as the primary defense.

Congress and the EPA must ensure accurate cost estimates and hold responsible parties liable. Affordable water services for low-income households are essential. Over 20 million U.S. households struggle with water affordability. Permanent assistance programs are necessary, alongside EPA oversight.

Regulatory flexibility and reform are needed to manage rising compliance costs. Water research is crucial for addressing challenges and supporting resilient systems. Protecting pipes from wipes is imperative to prevent sewage system damage. Tax credits should incentivize sustainable water use in industries.

Solar-powered Atmosphere Water Generation, provided by Energy Water And Development Corp. (OTCQB: EAWD), offers a sustainable solution, independent from groundwater, providing unlimited resources without negative environmental impact.
