House advances bill with increased funding for clean water
The U.S. House of Representatives’ Transportation and Infrastructure Committee last week marked up and advanced H.R. 1915, the Water Quality Protection and Job Creation Act of 2021. … By 2035, the City of Los Angeles expects to recycle 100 percent of its water supplies and reduce its reliance on costly imported water from the Colorado River. Truckee Meadows Water Authority in Reno is planning 13-mile pipeline to provide 1.3 billion gallons of recycled water annually to the Tahoe-Reno Industrial Center, home to Tesla, Switch and Google, and ensure 20,000 jobs remain in Nevada.
