The Water Profession Must Address Three
Principal Priorities
1. Change Water Management to Avoid Water Stress
2. Become More Resource Efficient
3. Extend Human Right to Water and Sanitation to All
1 . We Must Fundamentally
e Our Approach to
•
Water Management to Avoid Stress ( One Water)
• Water Supplies Provided by • Flooding Addressed by
Portfolio of: Combination of:
• Efficiency • Conventional Measures :
• Storage : • Drainage
• Surface • Dikes and Levees
• Aquifer Storage and Recovery • Rainwater Capture
• Local Water Capture : • Green Infrastructure
• Rainwater Harvesting • Spatial Planning and
• Restoring Local Ecosystems Implementation
• Reclamation and Reuse
• Desalination
Eliminating Biases May Lead to Different Solutions
Traditional Revised Approach
Approach

Available Surface and
Ground Water

Wastewater What are the
Management Applicable Discharge
Requirements?

We Know How to Achieve These Priorities
Consider All Available Options and Select the Best
Ones for Each Case
• Water Conservation
• Distributed Stormwater Management
• Low Impact Development
• Rainwater Harvesting
• Distributed Water Treatment
• Water Reclamation and Recycling
• Heat Recovery
• Organic Management for Energy Production
• Nutrient Recovery
• Source Separation
Combine Options Into an Integrated System Which
Captures Inherent Synergies

3 . The
Human Right Water and Sanitation
Must be Extended to All
On 28 July 2010, through Resolution 64/292, the United
Nations General Assembly explicitly recognized the human
right to water and sanitation and acknowledged that clean
drinking water and sanitation are essential to the realisation of
all human rights. The Resolution calls upon States and
international organisations to provide financial resources, help
capacity-building and technology transfer to help countries, in
particular developing countries, to provide safe, clean,
accessible and affordable drinking water and sanitation for all.
Approximately Half of the Human Population Lacks Safe
Water, and Less Than 20 % of Wastewater is Treated

" Legacy Systems" Must be Dealt With In Existing
Urban Areas
• Centralized Systems Serve Existing Development
• Distributed Elements Aggressively Incorporated Into New
Developments and Redevelopment
• Allows System to be Converted Over Time
• Existing Water Distribution and Wastewater Collection System
Provides Necessary Capacity as Urban Density Increases
• Avoids Need for System Expansion
• May be "Downsized" Over Time and "Re-Purposed"
• Centralized Plant Transitions From "Wastewater" to "Organic Matter"
