Vote Yes to Prop 6: #TRWA It is no secret: Texas needs water, and the problem is just going to get worse. Texas voters must approve the changes to the state's constitution required to set up the new Texas Water Fund, a dedicated source of funding for water infrastructure and new water sources. This funding will be used to replace and upgrade our water utility infrastructure and develop new water resources, both necessary to meet the growth and demands of our state now and in the future. This represents a critical down payment for addressing Texas’ long-term water infrastructure challenges. Learn more at https://lnkd.in/gDkbyYvd

Economic Consultant at Ruekert & Mielke, Inc. / Membership Chair and Technology & Security Committee Vice-Chair at Wisconsin Section of AWWA
Has your municipality considered funding through the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources Clean Water Fund Program (CWFP)? The CWFP provides low-cost financing to Wisconsin municipalities in the form of reduced-interest rate loans for publicly owned wastewater and storm water projects that protect and improve public health and water quality. The CWFP also includes projects for compliance with a municipality's Wisconsin Pollution Discharge Elimination System (WPDES) permit. Additional points and criteria for regionalization, phosphorus reduction, and energy efficiency projects if considering principal forgiveness. Due to the continued high demand for financial assistance, there are loan limitations that will impact the 2025 CWFP applications. More information can be found at the below links. https://lnkd.in/gYqn5Ye5 https://lnkd.in/gMi2nPfK Have more questions contact me or an R/M expert today. #ruekertmielke #funding #wastewater #storemwater #grants #infrastructureprojects #cleanwaterfundprogram #financialassistance #principalforgiveness

Texas is rapidly growing, with the population projected to increase by 73% by 2070. With growth comes the critical need for sustainable water resources. Today is election day and we have a pivotal opportunity to shape our state's future. In this election, we'll be deciding on several proposed amendments to the Texas Constitution. Highlighted on the ballot is Proposition 6, which will establish the Texas Water Fund. This fund aims to bolster new and existing water projects throughout our state, ensuring a more sustainable future for all Texans. Managed by the Texas Water Development Board (TWDB), the fund will: ✔ Finance new water supply strategies ✔ Offer low-cost loans for water and wastewater projects, especially to smaller municipalities and rural areas ✔ Support water conservation, awareness, and loss mitigation projects Given the critical importance of water infrastructure to our state's development and our profession as civil engineers, this proposition holds particular significance. LAN urges everyone not only to vote but also to vote yes on Proposition 6. It's an investment in our state's future, our communities, and the work we are proud to do daily. For more details on how to vote, visit here: https://www.votetexas.gov/. Let's make our voices heard and help shape Texas's future! #VoteProp6 #SustainableWater #TexasWaterFund

TURKEY POINT BONDING: County commissioners have unanimously approved $350 million in bonding under a Miami-Dade County Industrial Revenue Authority loan to Florida Power & Light Co. so that it can build a municipal sewage plant at its Turkey Point Clean Energy Center in Homestead. The plant will treat up to 15 million gallons of reclaimed water from the Miami-Dade Water and Sewer Department that will then be used in FPL’s natural gas plant cooling towers. The collaboration between FPL and the county facilitates county compliance with the Ocean Outfall Statute, which requires the county’s wastewater utility to beneficially reuse up to 60% of its wastewater by 2025. The county commission in 2020 approved the agreement for reclaimed water processing, treatment and use at FPL’s Turkey Point complex. FPL must repay the bond borrowing. #FYIMiami #MiamiTodayNews #FPL #TurkeyPoint https://lnkd.in/dNpeCf-y

Texas water fund to improve state water supply I know you know what we did. Texans overwhelmingly voted to support the billion-dollar allocation for water and wastewater infrastructure made possible by @Txlege in 2023. It was the most important session for water in many, many years. Then again, I don’t know anyone who voted against this smart policy. Do you? FOR Prop 6 1,966,583. or 77.64% AGAINST Prop 6 566,257 or 22.36%

Your 2024 water / wastewater budget has been approved by City Council. Next year, the average 5 room home will pay approximately $59 more for water and sewer services, or $4.92 more per month. That is a 4.35% increase year-over-year. This amount covers the cost of your water and sewer services. That’s the water you shower with, brush your teeth with, and wash your dishes in. That’s safe drinking water straight from the tap, and the network of pipes and valves to take it from the source to your home. Quick Facts: * When you pay your utility bill, you’re also contributing to the maintenance and improvement of critical water infrastructure like watermains, hydrants, and treatment plants. * Low-income households can apply for an annual Low-Income Utility rebate of $150 online at: https://bit.ly/3HkwtNI * We have a list of frequently asked questions about water / wastewater here: https://bit.ly/3GXsqp7 #utility #waterbill #waterbudget #timmins

The drama at Thames Water continues and it highlights the potential negative outcomes of privatization. It does make you think, how the heck did they get it this wrong? "The boss of Thames Water has told the BBC customer bills need to rise by 40% by 2030 to pay for improvements.: "That is the price customers have to pay for the investment in our infrastructure that's needed," he said." "The firm is in a race to find extra cash after its investors said they would not give the struggling water giant more money unless bills rise" #thameswater #water #privatization #infrastructure #Utilities #energy #riskmanagement https://lnkd.in/eybvYzQV

The meeting of Army Chief General Asim Munir with international investors is highly unlikely to attract any significant foreign investment. General Asim previously claimed he would secure $25 billion in investments from Gulf countries but failed to bring in even 1% of that amount. Over the past decade, Pakistan's average annual Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) has barely reached $2 billion. For international investors, meetings with figures like General Asim Munir or Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif hold little practical value. Investors carefully select countries for investment based on several criteria: economic factors such as growth, inflation, and stability; governmental factors including corruption, policies, and political stability; social factors like education and infrastructure; and legal factors such as property rights, contract enforcement, and regulatory fairness. They aim to invest in countries with strong potential for returns and low risks, making Pakistan an unattractive option under its current conditions. #pakistan #pakistannews #pakistantech #pakistaneconomy #pakistanstockexchange #lahore #karachi #islamabad #oilandgas #oilandgascompanies
But the Shabaz Sharif government failed to provide necessary ground support to investors. Investors need Special Economic Zones, having roads, infrastructure, electricity, gas, sewerage facilities & security. Investors needs good policies ensuring safety of their money. Shabaz Sharif government has nothing to show. investors can't invest in air. All efforts of General Asim Munir COAS gone waste. Bet on the wrong horse 🐴.

Every four years, the EPA conducts a Drinking Water Infrastructure Needs Survey and Assessment to determine the financial needs of the nation’s drinking water infrastructure and guide the Agency’s distribution of funding to states through the Drinking Water State Revolving Fund. In our new audit, we aim to determine whether the design and execution of the Agency’s most recent DWINSA, published earlier this year, were appropriate to create accurate allocations of infrastructure funds based on the lead-service-line-replacement needs in each state.
