Accessing clean, potable water by turning a tap is a triumph of humanity. But we know that much more happens behind the scenes. Every day, governments, organizations, communities, and water professionals work to ensure that water sources and systems are properly safeguarded, operated, maintained, and managed and that clean, safe drinking water is available and provided to the public.
For the fall issue of Watermark, we are seeking articles, company profiles, and advertisements that address the key issues and conversations around water resources, asset management, water treatment and distribution, and water potability. This can include articles on public health, contamination risks such as plastics, PFAS, and chemical contaminants, water quality issues, and the treatment and filtration processes paving the way. What issues or advancements are top of mind when ensuring clean drinking water? What tools, techniques, products, or services are changing your approach?
We encourage submissions that touch on cross-connection control, backflow testing and small water systems.
