Over the next decade, water utilities in Central Texas may face 

a variety of challenges, including:

• Identifying new water supplies
• Meeting new regulations
• Monitoring for and treating emerging contaminants
• Updating aging distribution systems
• Reducing carbon footprints

The Capital Area Chapter of Texas AWWA has assembled a team of experts to
discuss these challenges at its 2009 Fall Seminar at the
