Reuse & Conservation

Increasingly, clients are becoming more and more concerned with the issues of water supply and wastewater treatment. Of primary concern is the increasing cost of water supply and wastewater discharge, which directly impact business economics. In addition, clients have mounting concerns relative to sustainable operation and development, community good-stewardship practices, and tightening discharge regulations. As such, many clients are considering ways to reduce water usage and wastewater discharge.



O’Brien & Gere recognizes that in today’s economy of short-term paybacks and quarterly profit statements, recycling programs can be thought of as economically prohibitive. However, a closer look at both economic and non-economic drivers shows how a facility can gain positive results as a result of implementing new wastewater conservation and recycling programs, or simply by improving on an existing program. Additionally, implementing conservation and recycling energy requirement are lowered and, therefore, savings can be realized.
