Crossen also discusses his experience at Water Week in Washington and the different hot topics covered at the event. Finally, the hosts interview Mark Piesik, director of of sales for water and public power for Itron, and pick his brain on how leak detection and non-revenue water relate to the overarching conversation on water scarcity in the industry.
