The World’s First Online Community for Water Utility Professionals

SANTA BARBARA, CA–(EMWNews – July 24, 2008) – Forester Media, Inc. has launched a new

interactive Water Efficiency magazine Web site — www.WaterEfficiency.net

— allowing water utility professionals to connect over solving water

supply problems that are increasingly affecting every community in the

world. In 2006, Water Efficiency magazine was the first publication to

exclusively address public water utility strategies for improving water

management. The EPA’s WaterSense program and compounding drought in large

regions of the U.S. have increased the awareness of, and need for,

new-and-proven ways to manage water resources.

“Since we launched Water Efficiency magazine and WaterEC, The International

Water Efficiency Conference, water efficiency has become the top

environmental concern worldwide,” said Daniel Waldman, publisher and

president of Forester Media, Inc. “WaterEfficiency.net is where water

utility professionals can come together and help each other address

snowballing water supply challenges.”

Water Efficiency editor Elizabeth Cutright said, “With our interactive Web

presence, water conservation professionals will find themselves surrounded

by a like-minded community willing to share ideas as well as matter-of-fact

solutions for the myriad challenges they face. Water Efficiency is the

magazine professionals read to stay current, and now they have a place to

go online to interact and talk back, and help to drive the profession

forward.”

The new www.WaterEfficiency.net allows professionals to participate in live

discussions and blogs, get answers to questions, comment on articles, share

views, access Web-only articles, subscribe to news feeds and newsletters,

find current events, search back issues of Water Efficiency magazine, and

read the latest issue of Water Efficiency as soon as it publishes. Web

events will be announced online at www.WaterEfficiency.net.

The new www.WaterEfficiency.net launched July 17, 2008. With a controlled

circulation of 25,362, Water Efficiency magazine is complimentary to

qualified water quality professionals. Subscriptions are available at

www.WaterEfficiency.net.
