Our own Amanda C. Boone, PE and Morgan French spoke with Report for America Member Rose Schnabel about the impact of the Resilient Florida program since its inception in 2021. While coastal Florida communities have received nearly 20 times the amount of funding than inland communities, our Fiscal Solutions team and consultants are working with inland communities to capture critical grant funding and implement projects that improve resilience in the face of severe weather and rising sea level! 🌊 https://bit.ly/465XkIz #ResilientFlorida #FloodResilience #InfrastructureFunding #StormwaterManagement #ResilientCommunities #PublicInfrastructure

Wastewater treatment facilities are managing a wide range of challenges that the general public isn’t typically aware of. To manage these issues without significant capital and operational expenses requires creativity.   Our team is helping municipal and industrial clients leverage nanobubble technology to improve treatment performance, enhance process stability, reduce chemical consumption, and lower operating costs. From reducing odor-control chemical use to helping facilities avoid costly process disruptions, nanobubbles are proving to be a valuable tool for modern wastewater operations.   Our experience across facilities ranging from 20,000 GPD to 2 MGD demonstrates how innovative technologies can deliver measurable results without requiring major infrastructure investments.   Read more about how nanobubble technology is helping facilities adapt to evolving treatment challenges: https://bit.ly/4gBvWbt #NanobubbleTechnology #WastewaterTreatment #WaterTechnology #WaterInnovation #WaterReuse

We don't always stop what we're doing to look up at the sky... but a solar eclipse is a pretty good reason. A few members of our Portland team stepped out onto the deck this week to catch the partial solar eclipse over Maine. Did anyone else catch it? ☀️🌑 #SolarEclipse #LifeAtWC #Maine #EngineeringLife #WorkplaceCulture

At Lake Mansfield, improving infrastructure meant more than repairing a deteriorating roadway. It was an opportunity to enhance public safety, expand recreational access, and strengthen long-term water quality protection for one of western Massachusetts' most valued community resources. Working with the Town of Great Barrington and Kyle Zick Landscape Architects, our team delivered integrated assessment, design, permitting, and construction support through a phased approach that streamlined implementation and aligned improvements with community priorities. The project included roadway reconstruction, stormwater treatment systems, shoreline stabilization, accessibility improvements, a new mixed-use path, and a redesigned outlet structure that improves flood resilience. By combining green infrastructure with thoughtful planning and engineering, communities can create lasting environmental and recreational benefits from a single investment. Learn more: https://bit.ly/45p3Gm4 #WaterQuality #StormwaterManagement #GreenInfrastructure #PublicWorks #CommunityInfrastructure #CommunityResilience

Congratulations to Jocelyn C Tooley, Information Security Analyst, on her appointment as Water and Wastewater Sector Chief for the Infragard Salt Lake City Members Alliance! Through this leadership role, Jocelyn will help strengthen collaboration and resilience across the water sector, supporting the critical infrastructure communities rely on every day. #WaterSecurity #CriticalInfrastructure #Cybersecurity #WaterUtilities #Resilience

Mining projects often view water management as one line item within a larger permitting process. The reality is far different. Water-related decisions can influence permitting timelines, capital planning, closure obligations, and long-term project success. In this article published in Mining Engineering, Justin Vandenbrink P.Geo and Ray De Luna explore two real-world case studies that demonstrate why water should be treated as a critical path item from the earliest stages of project development. The findings are clear: 🔹 Early agency coordination reduces permitting risk. 🔹 Strong baseline data programs support multiple regulatory pathways. 🔹 Water-related decisions made today can shape closure liabilities years into the future. Here at Woodard & Curran, we help clients integrate water strategy across the full life cycle of mining projects, from feasibility and permitting through operations, reclamation, and closure planning. Read the article to learn why effective water management begins long before the first permit is submitted: https://bit.ly/4fHDSHO #Mining #MiningEngineering #MineWaterManagement #Permitting #WaterManagement

Summer internships are pivotal to understanding what day-to-day life can look like after graduation. Hear from Charlotte Balentine, an intern with our Andover, MA drinking water team. She shares how mentorship, asking questions, and gaining new experiences has shaped her summer with us so far! #WCInterns #FutureOfWater #Internships #Mentorship #InTheField
