Marianna Receives EPA Recognition for Solar Array Project
DEP s Deputy Secretary for Ecosystems Restoration, Adam Blalock, and DWRA s Clean Water State Revolving Fund (CWSRF) staff visited the city of Marianna for a plaque presentation and tour of the Marianna Solar Array Project. The city received the Environmental Protection Agency s (EPA) 2020 George F. Ames PISCES Recognition for Excellence in Problem Solving for the project. DWRA s CWSRF provided a $5 million low-interest loan for the construction of two solar facilities to provide nearly all of the energy needs for the wastewater system. By reducing the operational cost over 20%, the small rural community’s wastewater rates are controlled and made more affordable for the future.

Wandianzhang, a facial recognition camera supplier to the Chinese unit of US kitchen and bathroom products maker, Kohler, has set up a special working group to urgently conduct an internal investigation. The move comes after the state broadcaster denounced the widely installed face-capturing cameras at China’s annual Consumer Rights Day TV show late Monday.
With the evening gala drawing attention to privacy and security threats regarding the increasingly prevalent use of facial recognition, industry observers are calling for a ramped-up legislative push to hold technology suppliers and users accountable for biometric data breaches.
