3 award-winning water construction projects
Abstract
A range of water, wastewater, stormwater and related projects are set to get a boost from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act in coming years. The IIJA allocates $55 billion over five years to the Environmental Protection Agency to improve drinking water and wastewater infrastructure, including $15 billion to replace lead service lines. There’s also $3 billion for dams and hydropower. The White House hopes the funds will improve infrastructure. There's also $17 billion for port infrastructure and waterways. The money is just starting to trickle to states. For more information, visit the American Society of Civil Engineers in the U.S. National Water Environment Federation and WSSC Water and Water Service Councils in Washington, D.C.
