It will build on the Rainfall to Results: The Future of Stormwater report, which was released by the WEF Stormwater Institute in 2015. This report describes the challenges, opportunities, and pathways to improving U.S. stormwater systems in this rapidly changing area of the water sector.
Summit speakers will discuss
- new ways to drive investments in stormwater and wet weather,
- approaches to asset management,
- strategies for working across public and private properties in a watershed, and
- new technologies and best practices.
A luncheon speaker will discuss flooding and resilience and participants will have the opportunity to network and discuss how national efforts relate to local communities. The event provides an opportunity for water sector professionals to help continue advancing solutions to handling stormwater runoff and valuing stormwater as a resource.
