Resiliency Planning in the Wake of Hurricanes and Extreme Weather Events
Two recent events in the U.S. demonstrate the catastrophic impact hurricanes and flooding can have on communities and their infrastructure. In the aftermath of the event, New York City and New Jersey worked hard to move forward with recovery and rebuilding efforts. In 2013, New York City Department of Environmental Protection announced the multi award-winning NYC Wastewater Resiliency Plan, the nation’s most detailed and comprehensive assessment of the risk climate change poses to a wastewater collection and treatment system. Adam Hosking will present on this award-winning plan during the Singapore International Water Week being held this week, June 1-5.
