The recent wildfires in Los Angeles have severely damaged water infrastructure, contaminating the municipal water supply and prompting residents to avoid tap water. Flowpoint emphasizes its commitment to water management and safety, highlighted in its blog post "Reclaiming Our Water," which explores innovative solutions for ensuring water quality during crises. As Los Angeles focuses on recovery, Flowpoint aims to support the restoration and protection of water resources through advanced treatment systems and expertise in water management.

With storm season still active, let’s reflect on some key reasons why stormwater infrastructure is important: 1. Flood prevention: effective stormwater systems help prevent flooding by efficiently collecting and channeling stormwater runoff away from buildings, roads, and other infrastructure. This is especially important during heavy rainfall events.
 2. Water quality improvement: stormwater infrastructure, particularly green stormwater systems, helps filter pollutants from runoff before it reaches natural water bodies. This reduces the contamination of rivers, lakes, and oceans, protecting aquatic ecosystems and public health.
 3. Property protection: by managing stormwater runoff, these systems protect properties from water damage, which can save significant repair costs and maintain the structural integrity of buildings and roads.
 4. Ecological balance: green stormwater infrastructure mimics natural processes to manage runoff, which helps maintain the ecological balance in urban areas. It supports local ecosystems by reducing the volume and speed of runoff, allowing water to infiltrate the ground and recharge groundwater supplies.
 5. Economic benefits: Investing in stormwater infrastructure can boost local economies by creating jobs and increasing property values. It also reduces the economic impact of flooding and water damage.
 6. Community well-being: green stormwater infrastructure can enhance community aesthetics and provide recreational spaces, contributing to the overall well-being of residents.

Rapid Plas water security strategies for household and on-the-farm use While most regional water security strategies focus on water being made available to support industry, our focus is on household and on-the-farm use. Rain collected in tanks from homes and farm structures can help to secure our water future. In addition, the collective rainwater harvesting efforts of multiple household’s ripple outwards to: + reduce the need for new dams or desalination plants; + protect remaining environmental flows in rivers; + reduce infrastructure operating costs, and, + decrease storm-water runoff, thereby helping to reduce local flooding and scouring of creeks.

“It’s forcing that decision that all of us in coastal communities are going to face eventually, but some are already facing now: Do I stay or do I go?” It’s not seawater lapping at living rooms that will force large-scale abandonment of coastal #realestate due to #climatechange. Sea level rise will be the culprit, but its first manifestation will be collapsing septic tank systems. As the water table rises, such systems begin to fail by releasing untreated #sewage. The #publichealth impacts are already mounting. Some #cities are able to extend their sewer systems to communities under threat, but what of areas that are too far from the nearest sewer line? A #Miami exurb or rural community in coastal #Georgia may not be able to adapt by building a full-fledged #watertreatment system. They could be the first areas to be abandoned.

Effective drainage systems play a crucial role in preventing pollution and flooding. However, installing new drainage infrastructure can be both disruptive and expensive. CIPP linings offer a cost-effective and less invasive solution, providing numerous benefits over traditional excavation methods. They help mitigate flooding and pollution while saving money For more details: https://lnkd.in/epGh-Tz5 #CIPPlining #drainageremediation #trenchlesstechnology

Did you know that today is National Stormwater Day? On November 16, 1990, the Federal Register announced the promulgation of the NPDES Phase I Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) program to protect water quality. ⁠Since then, municipalities across the nation have dedicated time and effort to protect our local waterways from stormwater pollution. ⁠ The water, trash, oil and dirt that washes into your stormwater drains often flows directly and untreated into our nearby lakes, rivers, and streams. By doing your part to prevent stormwater pollution, you can make a direct impact on our precious natural resources downstream. Remember, stormwater becomes stream water.

Texas faces a looming water crisis due to rapid population growth, aging infrastructure, and declining resources. Experts predict that without action, a quarter of Texans could face severe municipal water shortages during droughts by 2070. This is the current reality shared by Brian Schewe, one of Aquaria’s system owners who lives in Texas and relies on harvesting rainwater. If his tanks aren’t full by the end of May, he faces a tough challenge: making it through the dry summer months without enough water. Through solutions like Aquaria Hydropack/Hydropack X, we transform air into water—secure, scalable, and sustainable. It’s not just a technological innovation; it’s about empowering individuals, businesses, and communities to adapt to a rapidly changing climate and protect their water security. What other ways do you think technology can reshape water security worldwide? #WaterResilience #WaterInnovation #AtmosphericWaterGenerator #Sustainability #Aquaria
