Water Utilities and Climate Change: A Research Workshop on Effective System Adaptation

This project conducted an integrative research workshop bringing together utility managers, engineers, and planners with climate scientists and urban infrastructure planners to begin mainstreaming climate science into the complex public decision process for water utility management, rehabilitation, and expansion in coastal areas. A workshop report was published with guidelines for water utility adaptation in Florida coastal areas (and, by extension, to similar coastal areas in other states). Tailored collaboration partner: Palm Beach County Utilities Department. Published in 2012.
