Minnesota Stormwater Seminar Series
Emerging policy issues that may influence future stormwater management efforts
Please join us in person or online on September 10, 2024 at 9:30am CDT for the next Minnesota Stormwater Seminar Series event - a monthly experience featuring national, state, and local experts on stormwater and green infrastructure. This seminar series is a partnership between the University of Minnesota's St. Anthony Falls Laboratory and Water Resources Center, and the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, and made possible through the Minnesota Stormwater Research and Technology Transfer Program in collaboration with the Minnesota Stormwater Research Council.
Title: Emerging policy issues that may influence future stormwater management efforts
Speaker: Chris Kloss, Director of the Water Permits Division in U.S. EPA’s Office of Water
Abstract: Stormwater policy has rapidly evolved over the past two decades as a range of management measures have been found to be more effective and able to provide broader community and environmental benefits than past practices. Change, however, is a constant in a dynamic, precipitation-driven regulatory environment. The intersection of a changing climate, emerging contaminants, and holistic resiliency and sustainability initiatives creates opportunities to assess what are the most effective regulatory approaches. This discussion will focus on some key environmental and public policy issues that could play increasing roles in stormwater and wet weather policy.
Date and Time: Tuesday, September 10, 9:30a - 11:30a US Central (please note atypical day and time)
