This book investigates the current and future state of freshwater and
the global drive to achieve the UN sustainability goal. It first
explores the major barriers to achieving the goal and then examines
some of the programs water managers are adopting to overcome those
barriers. These programs include finding new ways to supplement
existing water supplies, and greater acceptance of alternative
supplies, such as recycled waste water and desalination; green
infrastructures, and rain and storm water harvesting. It concludes
with two chapters on water management tools, including asset
management and strategic planning, which are of particular interest to
small water and wastewater utilities.
