The US has actually developed multiple new technologies to mediate the current water crisis and the increase of eutrophication in the bodies of waters. Currently in the Great Lakes of the US, new technology called hypernucleation flotation technology, which is a machine that physically removes the algae produced by eutrophication (Comar). 

In 2022, new laws and legislation by the federal government provided 50 billion dollars in funds to help build new tech and preserve the waters of the US(EPA). No doubt, the US is not lacking in terms of spending money to help build and strengthen the water conservatories and technologies.

However, there have been problems with the water in the US. In the US, there are still thousands of miles worth of unusable water, and this number is not stopping. Furthermore, there has been an increase in human illnesses from diseases from contamination of eutrophication. The US still have problems regardless of how much money spend. 

Regardless, the future is bright. The US and other countries all around world have been striving to become more sustainable and create new technologies to help remediate water pollution and to keep our waters safe.
