Stormwater Utility Seminar
Hyatt Regency McCormick Place Chicago, Illinois
Tuesday, August 2, 2011
The need for funding across the water sector continues to be a challenging topic, and while water/wastewater utilities have a long track record of well-grounded funding systems, the topic of user-based fee structures to pay for stormwater collection and management is a developing and dynamic field. To support this growing and evolving need, WEF is hosting a one-day seminar focusing on various aspects of stormwater utility management. Specific topics that will be covered include:
- Regulatory updates on stormwater (from U.S. EPA)
- Technical aspects of fee development
- Public outreach in stormwater utility feasibility analyses
- Planning considerations for fee-based structures
- Legal trends on stormwater utilities across the country
- Legislative updates on stormwater utilities at the state level
Agenda as of 7/18/11 (PDF)

Case study speakers will be confirmed in the coming weeks and the agenda will be updated often so please check back. Case studies are expected to represent a variety of different-sized utilities from across the country.
