Abstract
Involved in implementing environmental programs such as the one established by the 1972 Federal Water Pollution Control Act, utility contractors are part of a growing industry which already accounts for annual equipment purchases worth millions of dollars. The problems encountered in this type of contracting and how they are affected by equipment design and maintenance are discussed. The major ways in which equipment manufacturers could improve their products and services to better provide for the needs of this industry are also outlined.
