The AZ Water Association’s 88th annual conference and exhibition is right around the corner. This year’s event will be held from May 6–8 at the Renaissance Glendale Hotel and Spa. The theme of the conference is “A Vibrant Arizona Through Safe Reliable Water.”
Andrew Scott, a hydrogeologist in our Phoenix office, will be giving a technical session on Wednesday, from 3:30– 4:00 PM. He will present an overview of key concepts related to replacement wells, including the planning and evaluation of alternatives, permitting, limitations, and objectives in AMAs.
Gary Woodard, a senior water policy and economics consultant with M&A, will be kicking off the Water Resources & Reuse — Planning Tools & Techniques session on Friday. His talk, “How Low Can it Go? Patterns and Predictions for Residential Water Demand,” looks at the factors driving the declines in per-household municipal water demand across Arizona, as well as the consequences of this trend.
The AZ Water is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit educational organization founded in 1928 with a membership of 2,700 water/wastewater professionals dedicated to preserving and enhancing Arizona’s water environment. Although AZ Water is an independent organization, it also serves as the Arizona section of the American Water Works Association (AWWA) and the Arizona member association of the Water Environment Federation (WEF).
