Liquid Assets:
The Story of Water Infrastructure - Sept 30
 
Produced by Emmy award winning Penn State Public Broadcasting, Liquid Assets is a 90 minute, $1 million dollar, documentary project that will begin airing on public television stations this Fall. 
 
Join us on Tuesday, September 30, from 2-3 p.m. EDT for a free webcast to learn more about how you can work with other local groups to make the most of Liquid Assets.  We will consider how to maximize viewership, build partnerships, and organize special events that generate local dialogue on infrastructure investment.
