It is with great sadness that the entire Pumps & Systems family says goodbye to Stolberg, long-time executive director of the Submersible Wastewater Pump Association (SWPA) and a loyal member of the P&S Editorial Advisory Board.

There are more than 300 million people living in the U.S., and each person uses an average of 100 gallons of water every day. That water must be brought to us, and it must be taken away.

We ask top-level executives from large and small companies to give us critical insight on business trends and to help forecast what to expect in the coming year.
