    Verde Valley News – The Citizens Water Advocacy Group (CWAG) will host an informational program on Advanced Water Purification (AWP) on Saturday, Aug. 10 from 10 a.m. to 12 noon. Frederick Tack, National Wastewater Technical Practice Leader for Consor Engineering, will present water industry perspectives relating to AWP, PFAS, and wastewater management. CWAG’s Science Committee Chairman, Dr. Peter Kroopnick, will explain how AWP could help us address local water quality and quantity issues.

    This will be a hybrid meeting: in person and on Zoom. To attend in-person, join us at the Granite Peak Unitarian Congregation building at 882 Sunset, Prescott (2 blocks west of True Value).  The presentation will start at 10 a.m. There will be coffee and snacks at 9:45 a.m. for informal conversations before the program. Individuals wishing to view the presentation via Zoom can register at the “Next Event” link at www.cwagaz.org.

    AWP is the process of treating municipal wastewater to achieve or exceed potable drinking water standards. This process has been under development over the past 60 years. In the 1990s, the City of Scottsdale built an AWP facility that has successfully been treating the water to drinking water standards and then recharging it into their groundwater aquifers. Several other American cities have constructed similar facilities. The Arizona Department of Environmental Quality will soon be issuing its final rules for AWP and planning is underway for the City of Phoenix to construct our country’s largest AWP facility.

    The Citizens Water Advocacy Group (CWAG) has studied the AWP process and believes it should also be evaluated for use within the Prescott Active Management Area. In addition to providing a much-needed new sustainable water supply, the process could potentially remove both Arsenic and PFAS contaminants from our water supplies, stop further contamination of our aquifer, reduce groundwater pumping, and save costs of PFAS removal.

    About CWAG: Founded in 2002, the mission of the Citizens Water Advocacy Group is to protect the flow of the upper Verde River and to protect the long-term water supply for the Quad Cities region. CWAG develops science-based positions on critical water issues and educates citizens and elected officials on sensible water policies.

    O Captain, My Captain, My Trump

    By Sanford Bach

    When Donald J. Trump descended that golden escalator, America witnessed not just a man — but destiny in a red tie. The Founding Fathers stirred in their marble graves, whispering, “Finally… our sequel has arrived.”
