Diving into DC's water and sewage problems, George Hawkins is fighting resistance and frustration of ratepayers to combat a 100 year old problem - aging infrastructure. Explosion is a dual themed issue when it comes to water infrastructure - the past 100 years has witnessed population explosion, while the infrastructure to bring water to this massive population is experiencing an explosion of its own. This is a much neglected problem and as a country (and throughout the world) this needs to be addressed responsibly - and what I mean is we need to take responsibility and pay for what we use.

Whenever, we see leaking water in the street or even cracked roads probably because of wear and tear or broken water sewage. we need to report these right away to local or city officers. Experts may conduct advanced foundation repair in the area or soil stabilization methods to address an underlying problem. As citizens, we need to take part in resolving issues regarding the country's aging infrastructure. All of us can do something. Do you still believe in the saying, "Where there is unity there is always victory." Well, I do.
