Learn why unknown service lines can increase future replacement obligations under the LCRI and why reducing them before November 2027 can help utilities manage compliance.
Utilities may be overlooking substantial SRF funding opportunities, including principal forgiveness. Learn why acting early can help secure available federal infrastructure funding before programs become less accessible.
Learn why LCRI compliance extends beyond inventories and replacements, requiring utilities to manage data, reporting, communications, sampling, coordination, and administrative demands across the program effectively.
Jacqueline Mutter, National One Water Planning Lead for HDR, reflects on how potable reuse has evolved over the past decade from a long-range planning scenario into a critical water supply strategy.
CLOSING THE GAP: A MODERN PLAYBOOK FOR NON-REVENUE WATER
Reducing non-revenue water (NRW) is no longer just an operational goal; it’s a strategic imperative that directly affects asset life, service reliability, affordability, and public trust. This e-book on NRW is intended as a practical guide for utilities ready to take the next step — from managing water loss to controlling it.
