Why was Envision Created?

  • Infrastructure is vital to

modern civilization – need to consider full life cycle

  • Other sustainability

rating systems not highly applicable to infrastructure

Routine Reservoir Recoating/Painting and

tasks

  • Recoating the interior of steel tanks is required every

20 years to maintain the expected service life

  • Painting the exterior of steel tanks is necessary every

10 years to maintain the expected service life

  • routine visits, condition assessment and minor repairs

Programmatic approach. NSF approved products only. Check on material specs for things like paint. Choose the environmentally sustainable option. Groundwater well rehabilitation Existing groundwater wells require routine maintenance to maintain production over its service life Programmatic approach. Local products and recycled materials.
