Santa Fe Water Division
San Antonio Water System
Boulder Water Utility
Due to its location in a semi-arid region, the city of Boulder faced both severe flooding and severe drought. To manage floodwaters and improve water supply and quality, the city built greenways and developed a comprehensive conservation plan for unusually dry seasons. In addition to addressing its local water challenges, Boulder’s creative strategy has also allowed it to realize multiple benefits including open space, new recreational opportunities and public education better connecting the community to nature.
Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District
Despite massive investments in gray infrastructure, the Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District faced 50 to 60 sewer overflows per year. Using green infrastructure – including bioswales, permeable pavement, stormwater trees, rain gardens, and more – the utility reduced overflows to an average of only 2 overflows per year. Going green saved ratepayers $44 million.
