The proceedings, presentations, and transcripts from the first "EPA National Expert and Stakeholder Workshop on Water Infrastructure Sustainability and Adaptation to Climate Change" have been posted on the EPA website.

Sponsored by the EPA Office of Water and Office of Research and Development, the workshop was held on January 6-7, 2009, in Arlington, VA, and was attended by more than 130 invited experts and stakeholders from the federal, research, utility, engineering, and academic sectors.

The EPA National Water Program looks forward to continuing the dialogue that took place at the workshop, with the goal of delivering useful tools to the water and wastewater sector in the near term to help utilities mitigate greenhouse gas emissions and adapt to the impacts of climate change.
