Tetra Tech is helping advance efficient and effective water infrastructure projects benefiting hundreds of thousands of households in Northern Ireland.
Challenge
Northern Ireland’s water network systems and infrastructure are critical to deliver safe and high-quality drinking water to homes and communities. However, they are under increasing pressure due to pollution, flooding, population growth, and the impacts of climate change on the environment.
Tetra Tech supports Northern Ireland (NI) Water—the country’s sole provider of water and sewerage services—to maintain high standards for drinking water safety and quality and address critical water treatment infrastructure issues. This includes improving water quality, minimizing service disruptions to customers, and enhancing overall system resilience.
