A CSET report authored by John VerWey was cited in an article by WIRED that discusses the increasing demand for water in the semiconductor industry as the US aims to boost its chip production. The construction of semiconductor factories, known as chip fabs, requires large amounts of water to clean silicon wafers during the chip manufacturing process

In the CSET report, VerWey outlines infrastructure investments and regulatory reforms that could make the United States a more attractive place to build new chipmaking capacity and ensure continued U.S. access to key inputs for semiconductor manufacturing.
