Water infrastructure & resilience
Water security is becoming a national infrastructure issue.
Reliable drinking-water systems face pressures that can converge at the worst possible moment—from groundwater stress and drought to contamination, infrastructure disruption, and growing demand.
Union Regional Water is exploring how protected groundwater reserves and pre-planned delivery connections could add a practical layer of backup capacity when local systems are disrupted.
Groundwater Depletion
Pumping can exceed natural recharge, reducing long-term water availability.
Drought
Groundwater stress can continue even when surface water appears available.
PFAS & Contamination
Contamination can make an existing source unusable or require additional treatment.
Infrastructure & Security
Cyberattacks, natural disasters, power outages, and other disruptions can affect water systems.
Data Center Demand
Rapid data-center growth can make water availability an increasingly important planning issue.
A prepared reserve model
When a community loses access to safe drinking water, the backup source must already exist.
The larger vision is straightforward: protect high-quality water, reserve capacity before it is needed, and establish the pathways that can move it to qualified receiving points.

Is Alkaline Water the Same as Alkalinity?
I would assume that unless you are a water connoisseur or a chemist, you do not know the answer to this question. More likely, you don’t really care! On the other hand, perhaps you are an athlete or avid fitness fan and you have heard about the potential benefits of alkaline water. For those of you who are interested, there is a difference between alkaline and alkalinity.
There needs to be a short chemistry refresher. Water is alkaline if its pH is above 7, which is considered neutral. It is considered acidic if its pH is below 7. Water’s pH measures the concentration of hydrogen ions in the water. Alkaline refers to a basic compound(more negatively charged hydroxyls-OH. Acidic refers to water with more hydrogen ions
How to Measure PH
The pH of water is a measure of its acidity or alkalinity.
The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14, where a pH of 7 is considered neutral.
Values below 7 indicate acidity, with lower numbers representing stronger acidity, and values above 7 indicate alkalinity, with higher numbers representing stronger alkalinity.
The pH scale is logarithmic, meaning each whole pH value represents a tenfold difference in acidity or alkalinity.
Pure water has a neutral pH of 7, but natural water sources can vary in pH due to dissolved minerals and gases.
Maintaining a balanced pH in water is crucial for various biological and environmental processes.
