Officials could clearly see how the WOW Cart fills the niche between bottled water and expensive, energy hogging reverse osmosis trailers. Our reputation from the storm response resulted in immediate presentations to various EPA offices, the KY National Guard, disaster teams and other state water departments (Mark Hogg is pictured above presenting the WOW Cart at the Glendale Water Conference). WaterStep built carts for the Alaskan Coast Guard, KY Public Health Department and the US Army Corps of Engineers.
We are also working with the KY Rural Water Association to permanently position 8 carts in Western KY. We will train responders on the WOW Cart so they are prepared the next time a disaster strikes. As Mark Hogg says, “It’s a game changer. Together we are inspiring new thinking. Faster access to safe water and disinfectant means faster healthcare.”
