Sewers are a major foundation of public health and environmental protection as they transport wastewater and rainwater from households to treatment plants.Old InfrastructureMajority of sewers were built a long time ago and are reaching their end-of-service life. The average sewer in the US is 45 years old and they were designed to only last 50 ¨C 80 years.New Demands From Increased RunoffClimate change increases frequency and magnitude of rain events. Additionally, urbanization causes more areas to be sealed and higher population density generating higher rain- and wastewater runoff to be drained by sewers.Aging WorkforceAn army of people has been responsible for ensuring that our sewers operate uninterrupted everyday.
