Clean water on both sides of the border requires a clear and collaborative solution.

A new report commissioned by Prebys Foundation for the San Diego Regional Chamber of Commerce outlines a binational roadmap to restore water quality, protect community health, and strengthen accountable, sustainable wastewater management across the region.

The report highlights recent binational progress, identifies remaining challenges, and outlines practical next steps.

📌Five Pillars for Binational Solutions

1. Reliable infrastructure funding and rehabilitation of critical wastewater assets
2. Modernized operations and maintenance to ensure long-term system reliability
3. Stronger governance and accountability through a two-tier oversight structure
4. Improved public communication and transparency
5. Long-term water management, reuse, and planning
