We work on all elements of conveyance and treatment including for potable water treatment and wastewater including resource recovery such as energy production, recycled water and nutrient recovery. Our experts guide our work with scientific rigor, an innovative spirit, and a vision for growth. Every day, we help communities improve, reuse, and protect this precious resource for future generations. By 2025 we’re hiring 2,000 people (like you) to join our team. Grow with us, H2O U.
