  1. Your Story, Your Credibility: How Water Agencies Build Trust In The Age Of AI 3/20/2026

    If you’ve ever asked an AI tool a question about water quality, infrastructure, or even your own utility, you’ve probably noticed that the answer often draws from news articles, expert opinion, and industry reporting.

  2. Success Is The Break That Never Happened: How Embedded Acoustic Intelligence In Ultrasonic Meters Prevents Failure 3/20/2026

    Embedded acoustic sensing in ultrasonic meters enables continuous leak monitoring, helping utilities detect problems earlier, reduce water loss, and shift from reactive repairs to proactive infrastructure management.

  3. A Redefined Edge For Agentic AI: Converging Compute And Networking 3/19/2026

    Artificial intelligence is entering a new phase with agentic AI: autonomous systems that perceive, decide, act, and learn without constant human oversight, operating independently across distributed environments while collaborating with other agents in real time. This shift demands a fundamental rethinking of WAN infrastructure architecture.

  4. Critical Infrastructure Fails The Way It's Funded 3/17/2026

    Our infrastructure systems have operated in managed deterioration for decades. And not surprisingly, once they deteriorate badly enough and cross over into active failure, all cost discipline disappears.

  5. Water Agitation vs. F.O.G.: How Technology Is Solving A Costly Problem In Lift Stations 3/17/2026

    Wastewater lift stations struggle with F.O.G. buildup, causing maintenance headaches. Continuous water agitation, like Kasco’s HydraForce™, prevents grease accumulation, reduces chemical use, and improves pump efficiency.

  6. Mixing It Up: How Active Tank Mixers Help Rehabilitate Aging Water Systems 3/17/2026

    Aging water storage tanks face stratification and stagnation, threatening water quality. Active mixing ensures uniform disinfectant distribution, reduces flushing, and improves system reliability and regulatory compliance.

  7. Meter Data Management 101: The Essential Middle Layer That Turns Raw AMI Data Into Trust And Revenue 3/17/2026

    Meter Data Management systems transform raw AMI data into validated insights, enabling accurate billing, leak detection, and operational analytics while helping utilities manage growing data volumes securely and efficiently.

  8. A Collaboration That Runs Deep: U.S. Army Corps of Engineers And Port Authority of New York and New Jersey 3/16/2026
    New York City, the cultural and economic power we know today, grew from the waterways that run through it. Over the years, the deepening and widening of the Port of New York and New Jersey allowed ships to bring in goods and foster trade, but maintenance dredging must be performed on a regular basis.
  9. How Sewage Treatment Plants Could Handle Food Waste, Sparing Landfills And The Climate 3/13/2026

    Every day, food scraps disappear into trash bags, are hauled away, and forgotten. But that waste could be turned into something productive.

  10. Geotechnical IoT Shifts Water Infrastructure From Reactive To Predictive 3/13/2026
    Currently, water infrastructure is outdated and fragile, prone to breakages and leaks. Reactive approaches to water infrastructure are only implemented after an incident and are more expensive than simple maintenance fixes. Geotechnical Internet of Things (IoT) devices enable water and wastewater industry professionals to identify and address issues before they escalate into catastrophic events.
