The goal of this project is to inform state and federal regulatory agencies of the effects of regulation on innovation so that they can structure their practices and policies in a way that facilitates innovation.The study is funded by US EPA, and is a collaboration between UC Berkeley and ReNUWIt, in conjunction with the National Association of Clean Water Agencies (NACWA), the Water Environment & Reuse Foundation (WE&RF), the Water Environment Federation (WEF), and the California Association of Sanitation Agencies (CASA). By sharing your perspective on this topic, you can help ensure we develop accurate and comprehensive recommendations. We hope you will assist in our research by taking the survey now.
