The National Blue Ribbon Commission for Onsite Non-potable Water Systems, advances best management practices to support the use of building- or local-scale non-potable water systems, building upon years of research and collaboration by leading water utilities, public health officials, and national research foundations. The Commission recently developed and released a new report, “Making the Utility Case for Onsite Non-potable Water Systems” to help water and wastewater utilities, local government agencies, and other interested stakeholders understand the benefits and drivers behind onsite non-potable reuse, how other utilities have addressed potential challenges, and best practices for the ongoing operation of these systems.
Speakers include:
- Alan Cohn, Managing Director, Integrated Water Management, New York Department of Environmental Protection
- Ron Doughten, Water Quality Permit Program Manager, Oregon Department of Environmental Quality
- Brian Good, Chief Administrative Officer, Denver Water
