Tapping New Savings: AWWA Water Conservation Division Supports the Use of Best Available Technology

Abstract

This article presents the AWWA Water Conservation Division, and discusses an ad hoc water‐efficiency research fund that focuses on advancing water efficiency nationally and testing emerging water‐efficient technologies. The fund was born out of successful partnerships that include the maximum performance (MaP) testing of popular toilet models. The article lists programs that promote water conservation, and how to use product information to implement conservation programs.
