Since 9/11 they’re generally locked off from the public in the US. I attended some mass casualty and terrorism training and we talked with someone who ran their city water and sewer. He had a neat plan to radiate the city water system he helped them defend against.
That’s sad. I understand the threat for the water supply side ofc; but what would a terrorist achieve by meddling with wastewater treatment?
I live in Europe and had the opportunity to visit the water tretament facilities and wastewater treatment plant in my small town on school field trip, and have seen lots more, and much larger ones while studying to become an environmental engineer lateron.
You guys should definitely do a field trip to a wastewater treatment plant, if you ever get the chance.
Your kids would probably have a blast.
I’ve been to so many, but I don’t know how hard it is for the general public to visit one.

I’d say the school visits had some impact there.
