As part of their Small Drinking Water Systems Webinar Series the United States EPA is holding a virtual conference on America’s Water Infrastructure Act and creating resilient water utilities. Every month the EPA gives a webinar to discuss challenges and treatment solutions for small drinking water and wastewater systems.
In their next webinar the risk and resilience assessments and emergency response plan requirements for community water systems put in place by AWIA will be discussed. The EPA’s Creative Resilient Water Utilities Initiative (CRWU) provides drinking water, wastewater and storm water utilities with practical tools, training and technical assistance needed to increase resilience to extreme weather events. Through a comprehensive planning process, CRWU assists water utilizes in understanding potential long-term adaptation options for decision-making related to water utility infrastructure financing.
The event will be presented by Charlene Kormondy, a physical scientist of the Water Security Division of USEPA as well as Curt Baranowski, the head of EPA’s Resilient Water Utilities initiative.
