Announcement precedes World Water Day.

The Dow Chemical Company joins leading public and private sector companies partnering with the Value of Water Coalition in the fight to revitalize the nation’s aging and underfunded water infrastructure. The Value of Water Coalition is made up of local and national leaders that promote awareness about the value of water at a time when water is often overlooked in the national discussion of infrastructure investment.

“Water infrastructure is starting to gain more attention, being noted as one of the most important development challenges of the 21st century,” remarks Snehal Desai, global business director of Dow Water & Process Solutions. “With World Water Day on the horizon, it is time to reflect on the importance of public and private sector collaboration to maximize clean, safe and reliable water utilities to ensure the sustainability of our cities during a time of rapid urbanization.”

“While water is priceless, we undervalue it in the United States," says Radhika Fox, director of the Value of Water Coalition. "The strength of our coalition is bringing strong voices from the public, private and nonprofit sectors together to shine light on urgent, but often unseen, water issues, and inspiring positive action that will strengthen this nation. We are thrilled to have Dow help us educate the public about the importance of water to economy, environment and communities across the globe.”

Dow joins Value of Water Coalitions’ growing number of public and private sector advocates, as well as U.S. water utilities and major engineering firms, including: Alexandria Renew Enterprises, American Water Works Association, American Water, Association of Metropolitan Water Agencies, Black & Veatch, Camden County Municipal Utilities Authority, CH2M HILL, DC Water, Hampton Roads Sanitation District, Kansas City Water Services, Metropolitan Sewer District of Greater Cincinnati, Metropolitan Water Reclamation District of Greater Chicago, MWH Global, National Association of Clean Water Agencies, National Association of Water Companies, Northeast Ohio Regional Sewer District, Philadelphia Water Department San Francisco Public Utilities Commission, U.S. Water Alliance, United Water, Veolia, Water Environment Federation and Xylem.
