About the Program

Presented by Trevor Clements, Water Resources Director, Tetra Tech

In recent years a growing number of experts and practitioners have come to the conclusion that we must fundamentally change the way we conduct business with regard to our water, wastewater and stormwater infrastructure and operations if we are to successfully overcome the many challenges that our communities are facing or will likely face in this 21st Century. Some of the greater challenges include aging infrastructure and the gap in our financial resources to maintain properly or replace it, increases in impaired waters in our communities that drive regulatory responses, impacts of changing patterns in drought and wet weather, the need to reduce energy consumption for water-related infrastructure and more. Join us as Mr. Trevor Clements discusses research and recent thinking on defining a new paradigm for water management.
