The Hill's Congress blog: Infrastructure we can bank on
The Hill's Congress Blog had a recent post in which Gregory Baird, a former financial officer and CFO of large cities and utilities and who now consults utility financial staff on infrastructure asset management best practices in the U.S. and Canada, wrote:
...before we start throwing private-public funding at our [water] infrastructure problems via an Infrastructure Bank or some other federal funding vehicle we must get a firm grasp on the crux of our problems and the most cost-effective, sustainable ways to solve them.
Baird speaks about the approach we in the United States often take to address the crumbling water infrastructure and thinks we can do better.
