Thursday, August 21, 2025

1:00 to 2:00 pm – 1.0 TCHs

Buried infrastructure often accounts for up to 70% of a water utility’s capital assets—yet much of it is aging and nearing the end of its service life. With capital budgets stretched thin, how can utilities make smart, sustainable choices that deliver 100-year service life performance?

This eye-opening webinar explores why long-term performance materials are often overlooked, how outdated practices can drive up O&M costs, and the real cost of failing to re-evaluate your infrastructure decisions. Learn how the right pipe material selection can improve system performance, enhance sustainability, and ultimately lead to better customer service.

We’ll also break down the tools and resources available to help utilities evaluate their options—and bust common myths about pipe materials along the way. Two compelling case studies will highlight how forward-thinking utilities challenged the status quo, identified critical system issues, and successfully implemented impactful changes.

Whether you're planning a new project or reassessing aging infrastructure, this session will equip you with the insights needed to make informed, future-ready decisions. Don’t miss it!
