Environmental Business Journal
Water & Wastewater Markets 2003
(Vol.XVI No.9/10 2003)




Published January 2004

Though not completely immune to economic cycles, the water market managed to exhibit some resilience in the year 2002. Regulations still drive the market, as does the public perception and demand for quality supply. EBJ estimates the overall growth rate of the water industry at 3.6% in 2003. Nearly two-thirds of the business came from utility/treatment works sectors but the leader in growth rate was consulting and engineering-related sectors.
