Customers & Community

Our water infrastructure systems are the backbone upon which communities survive and thrive. Water service is a critical part of the physical platform of the U.S. economy. Not a single business in any community can survive, nor be established, without safe, reliable and high quality water service. Communities must have reliable and resilient water infrastructure systems to attract and retain industry, business, and qualified workers. Simply put, capital investment in water infrastructure means job creation across the country. The Associated General Contractors and the U.S. Conference of Mayors have stated that $1 billion in water infrastructure investment will support 28,500 jobs. Clearly, water plays an essential role in any thriving community and our nation’s economy.
