The U.S. EPA released its final drinking water report on the Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam (JBPHH) and Aliamanu Military Reservation (AMR) public water systems, which were impacted by the 2021 fuel release from the U.S. Navy-owned Red Hill Bulk Fuel Storage facility in Honolulu.

A new study finds that commercial satellite imagery data often outperforms public data sets when identifying surface water, but that public data sets may be better at detecting water hidden by forest cover.

Today, at an event with Department of Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Lee Zeldin announced a landmark set of actions to safeguard the nation's drinking water from microplastics, pharmaceuticals, forever chemicals, and dozens of other contaminants —delivering on the Trump administration’s promise to Make America Healthy Again (MAHA).

Gradiant, a global leader in advanced water and wastewater solutions, has been awarded a contract to design and deliver a water treatment facility for a hyperscale data center in Didcot, Oxfordshire, in the United Kingdom.

Xylem, the global leader in water treatment and transport technologies, introduces the YSI THM 1000, a new on-site analytical system that measures trihalomethane concentration at ppb levels in less than 30 minutes without tedious sample preparation. An EPA-regulated disinfection by-product, trihalomethanes, or THMs, are carcinogenic environmental pollutants that can occur in drinking water as a result of chemical reactions between naturally occurring organic material and chlorine added as a disinfectant. Drinking water treatment plants and water distribution facilities routinely monitor THMs.

Technical research commissioned by UK Water Industry Research (UKWIR) and conducted by the University of Sheffield has provided a breakthrough in understanding how and why cast iron pipes fail.
