Our Vision: Universal access to safe, reliable, and affordable water and wastewater management nationwide
Our work: No one knows how many wastewater systems fail to provide adequate sanitation services or how we should invest in wastewater recycling. We are working to assess this in California, developing recommendations to prioritize investments and solutions, and then linking our research to national efforts to protect public health and water quality.

No one knows exactly how many of the 100,000 miles of sewer lines and 900+ utility providers and treatment plants in California provide adequate service – yet. We are conducting a first-of-its-kind study to answer this question and advance equitable sanitation services.
Researchers: Nicolas Chow, Gregory Pierce, Benjamin Bass, Naomi Goldenson, Adam Barsch, David Kong, Alex Hall, JR DeShazo
We developed a model to analyze the economic and resiliency value of investing in wastewater recycling infrastructure to create a new local, sustainable clean drinking water source. This analysis can inform broader planning efforts in the U.S. and beyond.
