Invisible to Invaluable: Harriet Festing Presentation

Editor's Notes

  1. The issues: We picked two specific issues - urban flooding and water-loss - because they resonate with the public, and tell a broader story about need for water infrastructure investment. Urban flooding – for the purposes of this survey, refers to. more routine flooding the comes from too much rain falling on too much impervious surfaces: soggy basements, streets and backyards. Water-loss, refers specifically to leaks within water supply infrastructure.
  2. Urban flooding (cover of GL urban flooding report) 48 most populous cities in the Great Lakes region 30 responded: 63%. They serve 23% of the total population of the Great Lakes states and province
  3. Overall findings So what does our research tell us: Residents in communities are directly affected. Urban flooding and water-loss are substantial challenges that directly affect the public. It’s not something we can leave for the professionals alone to worry about Leadership faces real obstacles: Without common standards and targets, and dedicated budgets, water professionals lack the tools they need to fix the problems. They’re looking for help: 60%+ want to collaborate to improve best practice.
