  1. Beyond The Meter: Why Connectivity Matters For Smart Water AMI 9/10/2026

    This webinar examines how communications network decisions affect data availability, operational efficiency, leak detection, customer service, and future innovation.

  2. Is Wastewater-Derived Bioplastic Utility-Ready? 9/9/2026

    For years, researchers focused on a basic question: Can mixed microbial cultures use real wastewater or sludge-derived carbon to accumulate polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) inside their cells? Recent evidence has strengthened the answer.

  3. Flygt Propeller Pumps: A Critical Asset For Stormwater Management And Mitigation 9/9/2026

    Flygt Propeller pumps play a vital role in stormwater collection, conveyance, and flood mitigation by providing reliable and efficient pumping solutions for municipal, industrial, and utility applications.

  4. 15 Years Of Experience With Laminar Flow, Sludge Activating, And Lagoon Aeration 9/9/2026

    In 2010 a unique, patented wastewater lagoon aerator was introduced to the industry. The presentation will consist of a number of ‘proof statements’ showing successes of this new technology.

  5. What Utilities Don't Know About GAC Reuse For PFAS 9/9/2026

    For utilities building PFAS treatment systems, thermal reactivation of spent granular activated carbon (GAC) may sound like the obvious answer. However, service provider availability and location, specific media acceptance criteria including quantity thresholds, restrictions on GAC type and condition, and regulatory uncertainty can all determine whether reuse is a viable option. 

  6. Passing vs Chopping: Understanding The Tradeoffs In Wastewater Collection And Transport 9/9/2026

    This presentation explores the tradeoffs between passing solids and macerating them, highlighting where each approach provides advantages and how emerging pump, cutter, and impeller technologies are reshaping solids handling strategies.

  7. Energy Savings With Efficient Blowers And Process Controls 9/9/2026

    Energy-efficient blowers, combined with aeration controls, reduce power costs and optimize aeration performance in wastewater plants.

  8. Beyond Water-Stress Scores: Assessing Infrastructure Resilience At The Asset Level 9/9/2026

    Water-stress screening can identify where an infrastructure asset deserves closer attention. Assessing resilience requires further steps: understanding the asset’s water profile, the reliability and security of its supply, the pressure it places on local resources, and whether adaptation can keep it operational and economically viable over time.

  9. Colorado River Conservation Depends On The Delivery System 9/8/2026

    The Department of the Interior issued the 2027-2028 Operating Guidelines, calling for Lower Basin deliveries to drop by 1.25 million acre-feet annually in 2027 and 2028, with a minimum of 700,000 acre-feet of additional voluntary conservation over those two years. While temporary reductions are a start, water districts and water professionals should also consider delivery upgrades and on-farm improvements in agricultural areas that prepare growers for a new reality with less water.

  10. No Easy Way To Add Supply: Bozeman Chooses Continuous Acoustic Monitoring 9/7/2026

    When water rights are fixed, capturing underground leakage is critical. Continuous acoustic monitoring identifies developing pipeline vulnerabilities early, reducing leak runtimes from months to days, cutting non-revenue water waste, and saving thousands in emergency repair costs.
