As communities face growing infrastructure needs, climate-related risks, and constrained public budgets, new approaches to financing can help bring projects from concept to completion while creating broader economic and environmental benefits.
Public-private partnerships (P3s) can be used to support water infrastructure and watershed restoration projects by leveraging private capital alongside public funding. Institutional investors and market-based financing can support water quality improvements, flood and disaster resilience, natural infrastructure, and ecological restoration while generating competitive financial returns. By examining innovative financing approaches projects can move forward more quickly, pressure is removed from public budgets, and long-term infrastructure outcome can be improved. Additionally, water infrastructure investments can be tied to workforce development and local hiring to create skilled jobs, strengthen local economies, and support lasting community growth.
Join us on TODAY at 11am ET, to explore how innovative partnerships and investment models can help finance the next generation of resilient water infrastructure and watershed restoration.
