Laying the Pipes

More than 300 million Americans use an average of 100 gallons of water each day. Every home and business depends on water. In "Laying the Pipes" we examine what it takes to maintain our drinking water, wastewater and storm water systems. We'll tell you why some of those systems are on the verge of collapse nationwide and who will pay for repairs. We'll also check out new technology and explain what consumers can do to help sustain the water supply.
