Downtown Madison, Wisconsin, is surrounded by water. It’s an isthmus with Lake Mendota on one side and Lake Monona on the other. From my sister’s place I have a direct view of Monona to the south and some obscured views of Mendota off past the capitol to the north.
I mention that because Madison is a city that’s built around water, and it’s where I began my water and wastewater education in earnest very shortly after joining COLE Publishing. It would be a while before I became editor of MSW.
I came to Madison to do a story on a CIPP lining project
