AWE Releases Report on State-Level Water Loss Laws in the United States
 How does your state stack up when it comes to laws and policies to reduce utility water loss? A new scorecard report from the Alliance for Water Efficiency ranks all 50 states on this important water management area.
The new report focuses exclusively on the water loss portion of the 2017 Water Efficiency and Conservation State Scorecard: An Assessment of Laws. All 50 states were ranked based on state laws promoting water loss control. These ranks are displayed in a map, indicating which states have strong water loss control laws and where there is opportunity for improvement.
The report also addresses state funding for M36-compliant technical assistance, water audit requirements, and leak detection and correction requirements. AWE has found its scorecards to be an effective way to compare progress across the US and to spur additional action and improvements. |
