Please consider utilizing these educational website links to statutes, regulations, executive orders, and recommendations by legislative, executive, and judicial bodies regarding energy efficiency issues.

Link to "Water Infrastructure" video

The Local Government Advisory Commitee's video, "Water Infrastructure: Successful Strategies for Local Leadership" features five local officials explain how they successfully met the needs of their communities for sustainable water infrastructure. The staggering costs of maintaining and improving water and wastewater systems challenge local leaders in practically every American community. In order to assist local officials with this issue, the Environmental Finance Center has posted this feature video as one of its many accessible training devices. Viewers will find that the message is timely in how a group of decision makers were able to meet one of the most difficult challenges facing a community: sustainable water infrastructure.
