Global Water Technologies notes new water infrastructure report

INDIANAPOLIS, December 22, 2011 -- Global Water Technologies, Inc. (OTC Markets: GWTR) notes a new report by the Water Innovations Foundation (waterinnovations.org) underscores the growing need for innovative solutions to the nation's water infrastructure problems.

“We announced leaking pipes as an area of interest in October and this new report highlights the urgency of the problem,” said CEO Erik Hromadka.

The Water Innovations Foundation has undertaken research on the topic over the past several months to better understand its impact on utilities and communities. Some of the initial key findings include:

KEY FINDINGS:

- It will take 15 to 20 years of significant investment to stabilize and modernize the U.S. water infrastructure
- Predicted costs to repair U.S. water infrastructure system are $365 billion
- Approximately 15 percent of municipal water is lost to leaks
- Public water systems that serve more than one million people in the United States average a loss of 17 percent through leakage
- 45 percent of the country's pipes will be rated poor, very poor or beyond repair by 2020
- Leaking pipes lose an estimated 7 billion gallons of clean drinking water a day
- A water information technology system will lower annual operating costs on average of 33 percent, providing more impact on larger systems
- Such a system is not one project, but hundreds of interconnected projects

The foundation also notes that aside from aging infrastructure, the United States has entered an era of severe fiscal restrictions faced by federal, state, and local governments. Therefore, investment must be adequately prioritized and well-directed and innovative technologies for sensing and monitoring, information exchange, and data analytics can improve efficiency of water use and distribution.
