West Virginia AGC Chapter Hosts Broadcast of Liquid Assets, Pushes for Water Infrastructure Upgrades

The Contractors Association of West Virginia helped sponsor a December 15 broadcast of the groundbreaking PBS documentary Liquid Assets, which highlights the health and safety threats of our nation’s long-neglected water infrastructure.  After the broadcast, local chapter members pulled together representatives from the EPA, the local water authorities and utility owners for a roundtable discussion on the state’s water needs.

Sponsoring local broadcasts of Liquid Assets is a great way to advocate for increased investments in our aging water infrastructure.  Chapters that are interested in hosting screenings, sponsoring broadcasts, or leading local debates should visit www.agc.org/liquidassets, or contact Perry Fowler at (703)837-5321 or fowlerp@agc.org.
