Abstract
The current drinking water/waste management system not only puts West Virginians’ health at risk but results in economic and societal challenges that prevent our state from reaching its full economic and social potential, as a lack of adequate water treatment and wastewater infrastructure may deter new business investment in the state and discourage visitors and new residents from coming to the Mountain State. To improve this infrastructure, drinking water and wastewater systems in West Virginia that serve small, rural communities need help with basic services including maintenance, testing throughout the system, consumer confidence reports, and other services.
