CASCADIA WATER SEMINAR: COME RAIN OR COME SHINE
Increasing populations will place growingdemands on our nations aging water and waste-water infrastructure. The integration of closed-loop systems that emphasize water efficiency,and on-site supply, treatment and reuse is be-coming increasingly important as communitiesseek to strengthen the resiliency of their watersystems.

CLIMATE CHANGE CONSIDERATION:AN ALTERNATIVE TO AGING INFRASTRUCTURE
Most urban water infrastructures are becoming vulnerable to ex-treme rainfall events due to climate change (CC). Maintaining such sys-tem becomes costly because of aging infrastructure and increasing en-ergy cost. Furthermore, an alternative water infrastructure should beintroduced to reduce the CO2 emission.
