&lt;h5 style=&quot;&quot;padding-left: 40px;&quot;&quot;&gt;&quot;&quot;The underlying issue that plagues most large, centralized potable water utilities is the simple fact that it is nearly impossible to provide &ldquo;completely safe&rdquo; drinking water.&quot;&quot;&lt;/h5&gt;

It&rsquo;s called biofilm, a sticky substance consisting of bacteria, fungus, and other organisms that colonize in water. Together, they can act like a sort of &ldquo;super-pathogen.&quot;&quot;&lt;/p&gt;

 "Blackwater System Offers Zero Environmental Impact","news/blackwater-system-offers-zero-environmental-impact","May 1, 2020 12:16:00 PM","&lt;h4&gt;&lt;span&gt;By Daniel M. Early P.E.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;When a car dealership in Pennsylvania found the perfect piece of land for an expansion project, the price seemed too good to be true. Turned out, it was. Daniel M. Early, PE, senior engineer for OriginClear&rsquo;s Modular Water Systems and its subsidiary, Dallas-based Progressive Water Treatment, was approached about finding a solution for this real estate development.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;!--more--&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;The Problem&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;While the location and acreage were exactly what the dealership was looking for, they discovered that the property had no public sewage access, and worse yet, the land would not percolate, meaning that a conventional onsite sewage disposal system would not work either. The cost to connect to the nearest sewer line, several miles away, was prohibitive. Easement acquisition, engineering and construction costs, even with the relatively low cost of the land, made the off-site sewer line extension unviable.&lt;/p&gt;
