Water leaks, infrastructure, and utility management take center stage in this H2O Intro with Khanh Kim of Houston Water.
How can you tell if a leak is your responsibility—or the city’s? Start by checking the water meter.
Khanh Kim, Managing Engineer with Houston Water, leads a team that not only fixes leaks but has transformed communication with Houston’s biggest water users.
By building strong relationships with institutions like Texas Medical Center, University of Houston, and Rice University, his team now coordinates shutdowns in advance, avoiding surprise service interruptions and restoring water faster than ever.
It’s a smart shift from reactive to proactive water management—driven by collaboration, clear communication, and better public engagement.
Kim is an alum of the Water Innovation Leadership Development program of Duke University Nicholas School of the Environment and Duke Environment Plus.
