Liquid Assets on PBS
There's a really good article in the Sept issue of Municipal Sewer & Water Magazine (part of which is included below) that promotes the upcoming documentary on PBS designed to raise public awareness about our nation's water, wastewater, and stormwater infrastructure.
“Liquid Assets” program educates consumers on the importance of underground infrastructure and its proper maintenance. By Irvin Gemora
The much talked about Penn State Public Broadcasting documentary on America's underground infrastructure will soon air on PBS stations, setting off what I hope will be increased support of our industry from consumers and politicians.
The documentary, "Liquid Assets," will be released on Oct. 1 to PBS stations nationwide, and is designed to raise public awareness about our nation's water, wastewater and stormwater infrastructure. We often say our industry is out of sight and out of mind. I believe after this documentary airs, the out of sight will be top of mind for consumers.
I've seen an increase in news coverage in the past couple of years about sewer overflows, water main breaks and related challenges. I can confidently predict these incidents will only increase in cities across the country. We in the industry know the challenges - that we're repairing and replacing at a rate far less than what we've been using.
We're not spending enough to keep up, let alone fix the damage already done. It's my hope that increased public awareness of these issues has a domino effect. And that as a result, our lawmakers will understand that our sewer systems are our No. 1 asset. Without effective sewer systems, communities throughout the country are at risk of public health crises.
