Water Distribution Systems

Every day, we depend on the health, environmental, social, and economic benefits that clean and safe water provides. So that we can continue to enjoy these benefits, we must create a sustainable water infrastructure.

The tightening of public funds combined with the increasing risk of corrosion related failures in our water and wastewater infrastructure has utilities searching for answers on system sustainability. EPA's Office of Research and Development and the National Association of Corrosion Engineers (NACE) are working together to present, WATERCORR, a five part web series that addresses this concern, and provides the tools to make informed decisions on how to protect our existing assets and prolong the life of our water and wastewater infrastructure.

2009 Web Series page
