Managing Raw Water Storage with Geomembranes in Water Treatment Plants
Post 1: What is Raw Water Storage?
October 18, 2022, marked the 50th anniversary of the passage of Public Law 92-500, commonly known as the Clean Water Act (CWA). It was a broad initiative which sought to put the country on a new path to correct the lack of attention to maintaining the waters of the United States.

Since posting our first blog addressing the recent interest in exposed Geomembrane covers, discussion around the topic has continued throughout the industry. More specifically, the conversation often revolves around the same question: How can certain geomembranes be made to work for exposed applications?
In October 2022, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced $2 million in research grant funding as part of their Lagoon Wastewater Treatment Plan. The grants are one component of the EPA’s Lagoon Wastewater Treatment Action Plan, a broad initiative to assist small, rural, and tribal communities with the utilization of lagoon wastewater systems.
