Program Title: Challenges of a 21st Century Water Resource Manager – Speaker Steve J. Snyder, Executive Communications Manager, Denver Water
Description: Denver Water is the oldest and largest water utility in the state, serving approximately 1.4 million people in the Denver metro area. But the utility’s scope stretches far beyond the urban corridor, reaching the furthest corners of the state as well as the western portion of the United States. This presentation will look at challenges Denver Water faces in maintaining a sustainable water supply as well as some innovative solutions to our water future.
