Special Collection for UN SDG Goal 6: Clean Water and Sanitation
Access to clean and safe water is critical to public health and economic prosperity. The 2021 ASCE Infrastructure Report Card gave the US drinking water infrastructure a C- score, reporting that there is a water main break every two minutes with an estimated 6 billion gallons of treated water lost each day. Utilities also face the increasing challenge of keeping pace with emerging contaminants such as per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), lead and copper in drinking water, and the regulatory requirements needed to remain in compliance with the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA).
