Consider this!

  • Scientists estimate that more than 7 million people become ill each year from contaminated water, according to the Natural Resources Defense Council.
  • Across the country, over-burdened and antiquated water infrastructure is failing, as witnessed by the alarming numbers of water main breaks.
  • According to the Congressional Budget Office, more than 20 percent of drinking water is lost and 1.2 trillion gallons of storm water and wastewater overflow every year due to leaks and breaks in the 800,000 miles of water pipe and 600,000 miles of sewer lines in the U.S.
