Current and future shortages of energy require water‐treatment facilities to alter operation procedures to avoid waste. Alternate construction, equipment, and design criteria are suggested to deal with a situation in which dollars spent for nonrenewable resources are increasingly important. On‐site power generation, additional storage, and care in the selection of both pumps and pipes are discussed.
