I'm a water plant operator, so can relate to your concern about water.
- I know this town that had reached the capacity of their plant.
- Come to find out, the real problem was they did not charge per gallon of water used. They charged everyone the same amount regardless of amount used.
- They finally instituted charges per 1000 gallon and voila,
their usage dropped by over half.- Come to find out, people weren't responsibly using the water when they weren't charged accordingly. For example, they wold wash their car and leave the hose running into the ditch.
- Forcing people to take responsibility for their actions prevented having to spend $1 million for a new water plant.
@wizardave - I think you would have some really good insights for round 12 of IFC (if you haven't already). I knew some engineers that worked of desalination plants but poor management and planning by the government just resulted in a lot of plants decommissioned without ever been used. Thanks for the kind comments about the origami, I am happy with being able to do a lot with very little, in keeping with my philosophy about Steemit in general :)
