Few weeks ago, residents of Vandiver, Alabama, lost access to their private well water after drilling for fiber cables caused underground water to spill out uncontrollably. Eight wells have run dry, and the number is expected to grow as the water table keeps dropping. This isn’t just a temporary inconvenience—it’s a reminder that water access isn’t guaranteed, even in well-established communities. And residents of Vandiver worry about something much bigger—permanent damage to their aquifer. This raises serious questions: 💧How do we secure reliable water sources for future developments? 💧What happens when wells can no longer provide enough water? 💧How can we create homes and communities with water security in mind? Water security is just as critical as power and infrastructure. We can’t undo what’s happening in Vandiver, but we can rethink how we design water access for homes, businesses, and communities moving forward. What are your thoughts?
