Is there any forecast for how proposed stimulus efforts on the part of the new administration will impact the water and wastewater industries?


Construction spending declined 0.6% in November from an October total revised up by 1.2%. Current spending is 3.3% below a year ago and projected to decline 5-6% more by the end of the summer, says Jim Haughey, chief economist for Reed Construction Data.
