Our Panelists
Theme Outcomes
Participants in this panel will hear from water sector experts how the Smart One Water approach at appropriately broad scales facilitates smarter land use practices, healthier watersheds and rivers, greater reliability of our water and wastewater systems, increased efficiency, and operation of our utilities, enhanced livable communities, resilience against climate change, and protection of public health.
Food for Thought!
Question # 1
What is the future state of Smart One Water (SOW)? How does it differ from the current state of water management?
Question # 2
How can we broaden the scales of water management and understanding, across spatial and temporal scales and across purposes and needs?
Question # 3
Where are some successful examples where stakeholders with competing interests (Farmers, environmentalists, municipalities) have created a successful SOW Program?
