  4. Optimization Strategies To Streamline Community Wastewater Utility Operations 7/12/2024
    The availability of robust, stable treatment systems with simple treatment processes and O&M is key to serving growing community wastewater treatment demand.
  5. A Multi-Billion-Dollar Water Industry Segment Not To Be Overlooked 7/11/2024
    Water resources are a critical component of any region's ecosystems. But, perhaps even more important is the realization that water is also essential for human survival. Its needs cannot be ignored.
  6. What's Next After Supreme Court Curbs Regulatory Power: More Focus On Laws' Wording, Less On Their Goals 7/1/2024

    Federal Chevron deference is dead. SCOTUS overturned a 40-year-old legal tenet that when a federal statute is silent or ambiguous about a particular regulatory issue, courts should defer to the implementing agency’s reasonable interpretation of the law. At question is whether most courts will still listen to expert federal agencies in determining which interpretations make the most sense.
