PROTECTING OUR MOST PRECIOUS RESOURCE

Loma designed, developed and produced a series of digital training and risk assessment tools that generated critical awareness and instilled best practices for 148,000 public water systems nationwide.
The Client
Environmental Protection Agency
Rising demand, finite supply.
As infrastructure ages and extreme weather events escalate, drinking water and wastewater utilities must assess risk and identify ways to best prepare for an adverse event — before it happens. The EPA’s Water Security Division called on Loma to focus attention and motivate action.
Recognize risk. React.
We first created an online video campaign to encourage immediate download and wide-scale adoption of WHEAT, an innovative Water Health & Economic Analysis Tool.
Phase II was the introduction of CREAT, an integrated risk assessment application that helps utilities better understand current and long-term weather conditions to address potential threats.
Water, water everywhere. And lots of it to drink.
As in 400 billion gallons. Public water systems across American can now access timely, targeted information designed to ensure water safety and reliability.
