Natural resources &; you - how water works affects us all
Hi again. Kurt Busch here. As you may know by now, I used to work in the water works industry in Las Vegas. Water is a big issue everywhere, but especially in a place like Las Vegas. It is no secret how dry it is in the southern Nevada sun.
For this reason, I have gotten involved with Water Works Industry Solutions. The truth is that the quality and accessibility of our water source has a lot to do with the availability of training.
I’ve heard that millions of dollars are wasted each day on costs associated with the repair of water lines that were not installed correctly. In a place like Las Vegas where water is not easy to come by, it becomes an even bigger deal. I was reading an article in the Wall Street Journal about cities only having a week or so of water reserve. So if something were to happen, the water source would last a matter of days!
If more training is available, it could save time, money and resources for a lot of people.
Take the time to check out this site – and check back soon for my next update.
