Jacqueline Mutter, National One Water Planning Lead for HDR, reflects on how potable reuse has evolved over the past decade from a long-range planning scenario into a critical water supply strategy.
Pranjali Kumar, Southeast Reuse Lead for Carollo, highlights the organizational realities behind successful reuse projects. While treatment technology gets much of the attention, she argues that strong leadership, cross-department collaboration, and project champions are often the factors that determine whether a project moves forward or stalls.
Fred Gerringer, Water Reuse National Practice Leader at Brown and Caldwell, explains why water reuse is becoming increasingly common across the country. From water scarcity and stricter discharge regulations to growing demand from data centers and industry, he outlines the major drivers that will shape reuse adoption over the next decade.
