Hydraulic Modeling: Engineered For Florida's Booming Population
By Kevin Kennoy , from Barge Design Solutions
Population growth trends have continued to rise in regional hot spots nationwide since the COVID-19 outbreak in 2020. For example, in Florida, numbers are expected to grow by more than 5 million people by 2040, increasing demand on water systems that may already be at capacity. Modeling software is crucial to understanding these capacity challenges, proactively planning innovative infrastructure improvements, and developing new systems to eliminate hydraulic “bottlenecks,” fueling smart growth for communities.

A Tiny Bit Of PFAS
By Kevin Westerling from Water Online
When the U.S. EPA finalized the NPDWR limiting PFAS in drinking water, the maximum contaminant levels (MCLs) were mandated at 4 parts per trillion (ppt) for PFOS and PFOA. Utilities above the MCL thresholds must have reduction steps in place and alert consumers of exceedances after five years.
Those are tiny numbers. In the water industry, that is not a lot of time.
The American Water Works Association (AWWA) and the Association of Metropolitan Water Agencies (AMWA) , took notice — and action
