Seminar Overview
The CWEA Stormwater Seminar is presented to allow peer-to-peer information exchange
opportunities for representatives of regulated stormwater programs and stormwater, resilience,
and climate adaptation professionals. The assumption that current and future climate threats and
impacts will resemble those of the past does not appear to be true. Recently, we have
experienced changing rainfall patterns which have produced short duration, high intensity storm
events causing increased occurrence of localized flooding and impacts on water quality. Local
governments are struggling with big, expensive decisions in the face of changing climate and
increased NPDES MS4 permit requirements. These decisions will also need public buy-in. The
purpose of this seminar is to share creative, multi-objective approaches for establishing a path to
future stormwater management to improve water quality while accounting for resiliency and
climate adaptation.
