Constant Water LLC, Offers $1B Initiative to Trump Administration for Puerto Rico Water Resilience
Published on by Judson Walls, President and CEO at Constant Water, LLC in Business
Emergency water is at the top of every disaster preparation and disaster response checklist. It also consumes vast quantities of response funds and manpower during a disaster event.
Having a ready supply of potable water, in place before a disaster, will save lives and reduce the costs and manpower requirements related to emergency water acquisition and distribution.
With more than half of Puerto Rico still without water, a Virginia entrepreneur has proposed to President Trump and his administration a $1 billion initiative to prepare every home on the island for inevitable future hurricanes that will again leave the island’s population without water.
“Tremendous amounts of money and countless manhours are spent delivering emergency water. And billions of dollars are being allocated to reconstruction In Puerto Rico.,” says company CEO Judson Walls. “Now is the time to include water resilience in the rebuilding efforts.”
Constant Water is a battery/solar-powered, backup water system that provides 40 -120 gallons of fresh water, under pressure, throughout the home or business. “A 120-gallon system would provide a family of 4 emergency water for 30 days.” said Walls. “And only 20 minutes on a portable generator can refill the system tanks when needed. Our system can provide months of emergency water easier and cheaper than current approaches.”
“We must change the dialogue from disaster response to disaster preparation,” offers Walls. “No one responds better to a disaster than the U.S., but the response costs are always higher and the efforts less effective than if focus and funding were placed on preparedness.”
