Description
Description | A significant industrial expansion in the U.S. is constrained by outdated water infrastructure systems that were built for a different era and scale of demand. The American Society of Civil Engineers rated the drinking water infrastructure a D+, highlighting decades of deferred investment leading to insufficient treatment capacity, distribution, and discharge infrastructure. The EPA estimates a funding gap of $625 billion over the next two decades for drinking water infrastructure, with an additional $271 billion needed for wastewater systems. This gap impacts permitting timelines, capital budgets, and site selections for industrial projects across various U.S. regions. |
