Volunteers from Tracy Earth Project recently toured NWPX Infrastrucure’s Tracy facility to dive into the company’s sustainability initiatives. NWPX is a leading manufacturer of steel pipe and precast concrete products for water and wastewater infrastructure. We learned about several of the company’s initiatives, including using recycled water in their hydro testing process. Pipes have a cement border for rust protection In order to extend their life and use less water for testing pipe capacity. NWPX also consistently reviews opportunities to upgrade their freight logistics with the goal of reducing emission for frequently transported materials. Thank you NWSX for a very informative tour!
We ask students to identify an environmental issue and present a solution. Winners are announced at our annual Tracy Earth Day event.
