WELCOME TO TYSONS CORNER, VIRGINIA, AND TO THEAWRA 2014 ANNUAL WATER RESOURCES CONFERENCE

The National Capital Region Section welcomes you to the 2014 AWRA Annual Conference, in cele-bration of 50 years of AWRA. The Nation’s capital, Washington, D.C., serves as the backdrop for this year’sconference. We have an exciting week filled with presentations on the latest water resources topics, and pro-viding opportunities for networking and building our professional community.

The 2014 conference marks AWRA’s 50th anniversary. On this auspicious occasion, it is timely to reflect onthe state of water resources management in the United States: What was the state of water management whenAWRAwas formed? How has water management evolved as AWRAhas matured into a premier water resourcesorganization? What challenges and opportunities lay ahead for water management, for AWRA, and the waterresources profession? This conference provides a unique opportunity for myriad water resource professionals togather and reflect on the history of water management over the past 50 years and to see the latest work on thepolicy and science of water management that will help shape the future.

Our technical program begins Monday, November 3, with an outstanding Plenary Session in two parts: firstwith a Keynote Address by Dr. Kathryn Sullivan, Under Secretary of Commerce for Oceans and Atmosphere,National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, followed by a high-impact Plenary Panel on 21st CenturyWater Resource Challenges with Major General John Peabody, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers; Lynn Scarlett, The Nature Conservancy;John Anderson, U.S. House of Representatives; and George Hawkins, District of Columbia Water and Sewer Authority; and moderatedby Dr. Jerry Delli Priscoli, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Institute for Water Resources. We then continue with 83+ concurrent technicalsessions on a wide range of water resources research, policy, management, education, and technical topics, including special tracks forAWRA at 50, Climate Change, Dynamic Reservoir Operations, Flood Management, Green Infrastructure, International Water,Management Tools, Open Water Data, Social Science and Emerging Contaminants, Water Quality, and Watershed Protection Modeling.Our local topics tracks provide an opportunity for Mid-Atlantic water resource professionals to tell you about the Delaware River,Potomac River, Chesapeake Bay, and Interstate Compact experiences. This is a perfect opportunity for practitioners and policy makersacross the spectrum of the water resources community to share their experiences, learn from one another, and share their outlooks onand visions for the future.

In between the technical presentations, you’ll have several opportunities to interact with presenters and other attendees, includingthe Opening Networking Reception Monday evening. There also is a special celebration commemorating AWRA’s 50 years during theconference Awards Luncheon. Monday and Tuesday, the Exhibit Hall showcases companies with products, services, and informationwater resources professionals need. It also hosts the Poster Session and displays from our conference sponsors. We encourage all par-ticipants to visit this area during networking breaks and the Opening Networking Reception and take advantage of all this room has tooffer.

2014 also saw a re-launch of the AWRA Technical Committees. The Flowing Waters, Future Risk, International, Integrated WaterResource Management, Policy, and Technical Committees are each having an in-person meeting this week (please see pg. 2 of yourFinal Program for details of when and where). If you are not yet a member of a particular committee, this is a perfect opportunity to findout what it’s all about and ways you can help shape the future of that committee and AWRA.

AWRAconferences provide unique opportunities for students to present their work and learn about professional opportunities. Thisyear, AWRA continues the ever popular Student Career Night on Wednesday, with a panel presentation and Q&A session with profes-sionals from multiple disciplines and backgrounds, followed by a speed-networking session where students can interact with numerousprofessionals in a brief, yet focused, setting.

Whether you came as a sponsor, exhibitor, presenter, attendee or all four … thank you for joining us for an engaging week of waterdialogue with fellow water resource movers and shakers from throughout the country.

Over 50 NGOs and other organizations from across Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, and Delaware have come together toprioritize improving water quality in the Delaware River Watershed through the restoration and protection of priority landscapes. Theirapproach involves picking eight strategically targeted clusters of sub-watersheds, developing shared plans that align conservation workwithin those clusters, and measuring the impact of the work on water quality.

In total, the eight cluster plans identifying $230 million needed for conservation, restoration, outreach, and monitoring to make meas-urable headway on water quality over the next three years. The goal is not only to improve water quality within the selected watershedclusters, but to replicate the results and lessons learned in other sub-watersheds across the Delaware Basin and beyond. The WilliamPenn Foundation (WPF) has already invested $35 million towards this work, including efforts to permanently protect more than 30,000acres that are critical for clean water; implement more than forty restoration projects that will improve local water quality and providereplicable models for others; and develop long-term water quality data for the watershed.

The panel will consist of representatives from the five major organizations responsible for coordinating the work of over 50 partners:the Academy of Natural Sciences of Drexel University, the Open Space Institute, the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation, the Instituteof Conservation Leadership, and the William Penn Foundation. Each panel member will provide a short summary of their organization'sperspective with the majority of time available for questions and dialog.

AWRA has featured the science, discovery, monitoring, fate, treatment and possible ecosystem impacts of chemicals of emerging con-cern (CEC's). Researchers studying CEC's often express the needs to address the importance of the social dimensions to pollution pre-vention. This panel examines trends in the education, outreach, social and policy dimensions to pollution prevention for an emerginggroup of contaminants--pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) and their mixtures detected in water resources. Whilepharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) help people and animals live healthier lives, their use comes with unforeseen con-sequences when they enter waters and watersheds through excretion and disposal. Studies in North America and abroad have identi-fied pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) in rivers, lakes, coastal waters, groundwater, sewage wastewater, landfillleachate, soils, air, and plant and animal tissues. The effects of PPCPs are different from conventional pollutants. Pharmaceuticals arepurposefully designed for bioactivity and therapy at low concentrations. There is growing scientific evidence that even the low concen-trations of PPCPs currently detected in US waterways can have unintended adverse effects on aquatic organisms. Some of the PPCPcontaminants are known endocrine disruptors, possible human carcinogens, or contribute to antibiotic resistance. Human excretion anddisposal through flushing into the wastewater stream, animal feed lots, pets, aquaculture and septic systems are key sources discharg-ing pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs). Wastewater treatment technologies can remove some pharmaceuticals fromwastewater, but these technologies are expensive to build and operate and they often lag the development of new classes of drugs.Survey-based studies in California and France indicate that between 40-50% of all prescribed and over-the-counter medications pur-chased by consumers go unused. Although only 10-30% of this unused portion is reportedly flushed, drug take-back programs, whilehelpful, are a limited solution. This presents a growing potential future risk to water resources, as these unused medicines accumulatewith existing consumers and the demand for pharmaceuticals is increasing with an aging demographic. Educating consumers and healthcare professionals about more effective PPCP use and methods to generate less PPCP waste, in part through proper disposal of phar-maceuticals, are important strategies for reducing PPCP flows into watershed. However, current practices mostly emphasize ecologi-cally friendly ways to dispose of unwanted PPCP's vs. source reduction. From a PPCP product lifecycle perspective, current programsemphasize the downstream "Discharge and Disposal" stage, without fully understanding the upstream production and prescription stage,driving "Uses" that create these PPCP flows. Our panel will also examine barriers to developing state and nationwide PPCP pollutionprevention strategies, and actions. Leadership is needed for product stewardship and there are questions regarding who is financiallyresponsible. Social analysis of the consumers and health care professionals that contribute to PPCP flows may help us to identify addi-tional and/or better points to control or reduce the discharge and disposal of pharmaceuticals. Incorporating social science and educa-tion can enhance ecotoxicology research and help prioritize monitoring of water resources based on human decision points and triggersto behaviors.

50 YEARS OF EVOLUTION IN INTERSTATE WATER LITIGATION AND MANAGEMENT

American water law and policy vary from state to state, region to region. For the most part, water allocation law is state law, not feder-al law, although federal law comes into play in regard to water on federal lands and Indian reservations and in Federal reservoirs.Eastern states generally employ the riparian doctrine for streams. Western states use the prior appropriation doctrine. Several ground-water allocation doctrines create a patchwork across the country. These doctrines have undergone many changes over the last 50 years-increasing legislative regulation in the east, and changes in the west derived from the Public Trust Doctrine, environment and wildlifeconcerns, and the need to preserve instream flows. Creation of critical groundwater areas in some western states attempts to slowdepletion of groundwater. States share river basins, which has led to interstate water disputes with states entering into interstate watercompacts or seeking resolution in the U.S. Supreme Court or Congress. One way to learn about these differences and developments isto hear about experiences in specific states in different parts of the country. This special session will include four speakers. Three speak-ers will describe 50-years of the legal aspects of water resources management in their respective states. The fourth speaker will discussinterstate water conflicts. Panel moderator John Peck, professor of law at the University of Kansas School of Law, will begin with a briefoverview of U.S. hydrology and geography and the various water law doctrines employed for rivers and groundwater. Law professorJames May of Delaware's Widener University School of Law will describe water allocation law in Delaware, a small eastern state thatborders the Delaware River, the Delaware Bay, and the Atlantic Ocean. Professor Peck will cover the water allocation law of Kansas, alarge, great plains state located on the borderline between the eastern, precipitation-rich states and the western, arid states. His primaryfocus will be groundwater management issues in the vast High-Plains Aquifer due to the extensive use of groundwater in westernKansas. Describing water law developments in the large mountain state of Montana will be Irma Russell, past-dean and now professorat the University of Montana School of Law. Montana has mountain streams, large rivers, groundwater, extensive Federal land holdings,and Indian reservations. Lastly, Burke Griggs, Consulting Professor at the Bill Lane Center for the American West at Stanford Universityand a special assistant attorney general for the State of Kansas, will provide insight into the resolution of disputes in several interstateriver basins across the country.

TRANSFERRING ENERGY EFFICIENCY APPROACHES TO WATER


The field of water efficiency has made significant strides in the last 25 years, since one of the first national water efficiency conferences--Conserv90. Think of the changes: from a few communities adopting local showerhead ordinances to nationwide plumbing standardsand over half of U.S. states with water conservation planning requirements; from bricks in the toilet to ultra low flow fixtures; from moti-vating customers with "shower with a friend" to customized online water use calculators. Where water and energy efficiency were oncetreated as separate programs with different rationales, recent research on the energy-water nexus has prompted more joint programsand a national conversation about their relationship. Once, utilities questioned whether water efficiency programs help or hinder in timeof drought. Now, water efficiency is looked to as one prime tool in climate change adaptation. Water efficiency is much less seen assomething just for western U.S. cities. Today some of the most innovative practices are being undertaken by east coast communities.The role of more efficient water use in the health of a watershed is also an emerging topic, and the environmental benefits of specificwater efficiency practices are being noted. State and federal policy has kept pace with the increasing need for more efficient water use,its role in a watershed, and its relationship to other pressing issues of our day. Yet clearly even greater adoption of more efficient wateruse policies and programs will be needed in the future, and there's several ways to get there. This presentation will describe the adop-tion of water efficiency policies and measures then and now, identify trends, and suggest some alternative futures and possible gov-ernment responses as more efficient water use becomes an imperative throughout the US. Both federal and state policies, as well aslocal efficiency programs and codes, will be addressed, though the focus for the future will be on national policy. Representatives ofleading water utility programs, researchers, and environmental groups will discuss these issues.

AWRAturned 50 years old in 2014. The January 2014 issue of Water Resources IMPACT celebrated the 50th birthday of AWRAwith aseries of essays on the future of water resources in the United States. This is the third of three panels featuring authors of these essays.During AWRA’s 50 years of existence, water research has led to faster, more efficient ways of addressing water resources problems withthe development and use of models of all kinds, of miniaturization of equipment, of real time transmission and availability of data, andof instrumentation that allows the analysis of hitherto undetectable contaminants among many other technical advances. Looking to thefuture, panel members will discuss these changes and look at research that is needed to meet future challenges. Debra Knopman willfocus on the challenge of structuring, conducting and presenting interdisciplinary research on systems that, due to climate change, arecharacterized by pervasive uncertainties. Joan Rose will detail the need for innovative methods of in situ and remote sensing that bringtogether pollution science and other disciplines that include our engineered infrastructure. Gerry Galloway will speculate on the waterresources future if more attention is not given to the basics, data gathering, monitoring, assessment, flood mapping, infrastructureimprovement for surface water, groundwater, emerging contaminants, and coastal erosion. Michael Campana will discuss the need formanaging groundwater as a component of an integrated system and for continued research into determining exactly how much ground-water we have, where it is located and if it can be recovered.

This is the first of three panels featuring authors of these essays.During AWRA’s 50 years of existence, water policy in the United States at all levels has undergone profound changes owing to a greatextent to the emergence of the ecological and environmental awareness and the passage of federal laws promulgating clean and safewater. Panel members will discuss these changes from legal, economic, and policy points of view and will look to the future to try to pre-dict what the future of water policy in the United States in a time of increasing population, changing demographics, changing hydrolog-ic conditions and, above all, climate change. Fort and Bateman will focus on the need for potential law and policy changes while Mehanand Michelsen will discuss the economics of water and whether the current system of water pricing will need to be changed to meetfuture needs and what changes might be needed.

(NASH) Discharge measurements of water are used by water managers, land use planners, engineers and hydrologists to make deci-sions concerning water allocations, flood risks, zoning, flood structures, and bridges. The quality and uncertainty of discharge meas-urements affect the level of confidence in the decisions made on the basis of those discharge measurements. The panel will discusswhether alternative methods for estimating the uncertainty of discharge measurements could yield more robust estimates than thoseafforded by current approaches.

PANEL: AWRA AT 50-3: THE FUTURE OF WATER MANAGEMENT


PANELISTS

DONALD WILHITE • UNIVERSITY OF NEBRASKA • LINCOLN, NEBRASKA

DON RILEY • DAWSON AND ASSOCIATES • WASHINGTON, D.C.THERESA CONNOR • WATER ENVIRONMENT RESEARCH FOUNDATION • ALEXANDRIA, VIRGINIA

ERIC FITCH • MARIETTA COLLEGE • MARIETTA, OHIO

AWRAturned 50 years old in 2014. The January 2014 issue of Water Resources IMPACT celebrated the 50th birthday of AWRAwith aseries of essays on the future of water resources in the United States. This is the second of three panels featuring authors of theseessays. During AWRA’s 50 years of existence, like water policy, water management in the United States at all levels has undergone pro-found changes. Drought has continued to plague various areas of the United State sometimes for prolonged periods. Flood manage-ment has improved significantly but monetary losses have continued to increase. Advances in irrigation technologies have led to a lev-eling of water use but agricultural chemicals continue to contaminate the nation’s waters. Population in coastal zones continues toincrease at the same time as coastal erosion continues. Wilhite will discuss the need for drought mitigation measures and need for effec-tive drought management policies. Riley will focus on flood risk reduction measures and need for increased public awareness. Connorwill provide insight agricultural conservation practices and the ease of use and cost effectiveness of these practices. Fitch will relate suchthings as ocean acidification and the impacts on freshwater resources in coastal areas from sea level rise to increasing coastal zonepopulations.

Two panels will present complementary discussions of ecological modeling as applied to the projected outcomes of watershed protec-tion and restoration strategies. This session will focus on large scale changes at the basin and sub-basin level as variousprotection/restoration strategies are applied. Among methods that will be discussed, the urban growth model SLEUTH (Slope, Landcover, Exclusion, Urbanization, Transportation, and Hillshade) has been used to assess projected water quality and availability impactsfrom climate change, population growth and/or specific development scenarios at basin and regional scales. The panel will also high-light development of the basin-scale application of the SWAT (Soil and Water Assessment Tool) model, particularly to better understandpotential impacts on landcover/water quality from such changes as potentially lifting the Marcellus shale development moratorium and/orfrom complete (re)forestation of riparian buffer zones. In addition, the discussion will include use of "Model My Watershed", a WIKIwatershed product, to model large scale scenarios and to bridge the gap from basin scale to site scale. The discussion will include theways in which models can be used together synergistically, and as a management tools for basin-scale policy decisions. There will bespecific discussion of modeling the value of green infrastructure on catchments using a suite of watershed restoration practices.

By 1974, AWRAhad become an intellectual home for academics and practitioners challenged by needs for raising water resources man-agement to a higher level. Many excellent ideas were presented at AWRA's tenth anniversary conference, and some of those authorsare still working toward that goal. These along with others senior leaders in water resources published their current assessments in theMay 2014 issue of Impact. This session would split between author presentations of highlights and discussion with the audience on mov-ing forward.

COLLABORATIVE RIVER BASIN MANAGEMENT FOR THE NATION'S RIVER

Starting in 1961, state/federal compact river basin commissions have been authorized by state and federal legislation to manage waterresources on a watershed basis. Over the past 50 years this novel approach to planning and regulation of water resources has endured


and evolved, yet remains unique in its long term focus to manage water resources. Three river basin commissions were created understate/federal compacts with mandates to manage water resources without regard to political boundaries: (1) Delaware River BasinCommission (DRBC), established in 1961; (2) Susquehanna River Basin Commission (SRBC), established in 1970; and (3) InterstateCommission on the Potomac River Basin (ICPRB), established in 1940. Two of these three organizations – DRBC and SRBC – areunique among river basin management entities in that they have regulatory as well as planning and monitoring responsibilities. Among other topics, the speakers will consider: (a) the Commissions’ greatest contributions to water resource management, be they inwater quality, flow management, allocation, point or non-point source pollution control or other areas, and where these unique organi-zations will make the greatest difference in their respective basins over the next 50 years; (b) how relationships between the commis-sions and their member state and federal agencies have evolved over time; and (c) how the commissions’ respective revenue modelshave evolved and may change.

What are the large water problems of the nation? What assembly of information is needed to address those problems? How does thepresent fragmented nature of our water information and institutions limit the solution to these problems? How can these limitations beovercome by a network of shared services for water data, modeling, forecasting and mapping? How can information be shared acrosslevels of government from federal to local and in both directions, so that local actions are informed by national information and equallythat especially during water emergencies national response can be informed by local information rapidly communicated and synthe-sized? How can government water information be presented as services so that commercial firms can transform that into useful appli-cations for particular problems and sets of customers? How can structures such as the Federal Geographic Data Committee and theAdvisory Committee on Water Information be used to define an appropriate architecture for Open Water Data sharing for the nation?This session will address these questions to a panel of experts drawn from the national water leadership of the United States.


PANEL: AWRA POLICY COMMITTEE REPORT: FLOOD AND DROUGHT CASE STUDIES IN PROACTIVE MANAGEMENT

AWRA's Policy Committee comprises water professionals and others with an interest in how public policy shapes our collective man-agement of water resources. It is a diverse committee that includes scientists, educators, policy-makers, and other experts at all stagesof their careers. For the 2013 AWRA Annual Meeting, the Policy Committee researched and analyzed several case studies involvingflood and drought management, with a goal of identifying cases where states or municipalities implemented especially proactive actions:planning, policies, or facilities that looked ahead to future problems, and addressed multiple problems - and potential opportunities -rather than single-issue solutions that could engender negative unintended consequences in other ways. As an extension to the 2013report, the Policy Committee endeavored to assess another set of case studies, this time in the historical context of flood and droughtmanagement planning, policies, and actions developed and implemented by agencies and case-study municipalities in the UnitedStates. The historical perspective, case study examples, and lessons learned are blended with the current political conditions related toclimate change and growing conflicts over water resources in the United States. Recognizing that many of the decisions about manag-ing extreme conditions of flood and drought are made, and actions implemented, by local-level and municipal agencies, the report eval-uates in detail eight case studies of local management and response to problems of extreme conditions - four to flooding, and four todrought. Each case study highlights the enabling environment, institutional roles, and management instruments that pertain to each casestudy, in a way that identifies factors that contribute to or inhibit a proactive and successful flood or drought management plan; commontrends among these effective actions; and lessons that can be learned from the experiences of these cases. Information in this report(and the 2013 document) can serve as guidance on instruments and methods that might be applicable for localities that will in the futureneed to create and implement plans to mitigate or respond to conditions of extreme flows. It also provides additional resources that enti-ties dealing with these water resource issues can consult in designing their management strategies. With the completion of the 2014report, the Policy Committee will prepare a statement on flood and drought for the AWRA Board of Directors to consider adopting,derived in part from findings of the case studies. This panel presentation will describe the methods used to prepare the 2014 report,summarize the findings, and present lessons learned. An interactive discussion of innovative approaches to flood and drought pre-paredness will follow the panelists portion to sharing insights and recommendations that emerged from the analyses over the two setsof cases. The session will include an open discussion to invite commentary on how the findings, and other issues, might be incorporat-ed into a policy statement for the AWRA Board of Directors.

The future of an open water-data infrastructure will be guided and funded based on its ability to meet critical decision support needsaddressing changing climates and populations. Data that are available in a standardized way, comprising a wide range of water and cli-mate data sources, are critical to better understanding past, current and future scenarios and their uncertainties. Each community andregion faces unique choices distinct to their risks and vulnerabilities. The quality and availability of information underlies both the short-term and long-term success or failure of the measures and policies we enact. This panel session allows experts from a range of con-tributors and users to discuss what is needed, what is possible, and what are the consequences of inaction.

PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT HOURS (PDHS)

AWRA has instituted a self reporting system for Professional Development Hours (PDHs). To meet education requirementsfor license renewal, conference attendees should report their session attendance directly to their licensing organizations. AWRA willprovide at its registration desk, self-reporting forms that can be used to acquire signatures of session moderators.

Please note that self-reporting is an honor system. It places the onus on the individual to report PDHs to their licensing body. TheAWRA forms are furnished as a convenience to conference attendees.

The following caveats apply to this PDH policy:

1. AWRA will not notify the licensing organizations concerning earned PDHs. This will be up to the attendee.2. AWRA will not keep session records or enter PDHs in its record keeping system.3. Most importantly, AWRA cannot guarantee acceptance of the PDHs by licensing boards.

Because self reporting reduces AWRA administrative costs, AWRA will not charge a fee for those wishing to obtain PDHs.

FIRE EMERGENCY INFORMATION ~ PREPAREDNESS IN HOTELS

PLAN AHEAD – When you check into your room, check the location of exits. Walk to the nearest exit, learn the route, obstacles,etc. Keep your room key on the night stand when you are in your room. Examine your room. Check the windows to see if they openand how. Examine the area outside your window.

IN CASE OF A FIRE ... EVACUATION PROCEDURES – Immediately investigate all odors, smoke, and/or disturbances. If you smellsmoke, grab your key, roll out of bed, and crawl to the door. Feel the door. If the door facing or knob is hot, don’t open it. If the hallis clear of fire, crawl toward the exit after closing your door. Stay against the exit side of the wall. Keep as close to the floor as pos-sible. When you reach the exit, walk down the stairs holding the handrail.

SURVIVAL TECHNIQUES IN THE ROOM – If the door is warm or hot, or if the hallway is filled with smoke, you can still defend your-self effectively in your room. Call the front desk to report the fire and let someone know your location. Vent the room. Use the bath-room vent fan or open the window if there is smoke in your room. Don’t open the window if there is smoke outside. Fill the bathtubwith water for firefighting. Don’t get in the tub! Use wet sheets or towels to stuff the cracks around the door. use the ice bucket todrench the walls, mattresses, rugs, drapes, etc. While waiting to be rescued, do not hide from the fire. Stay out of closets and outfrom under the bed. Keep fighting until help arrives. Place a towel, sheet, or other items in the window to let firemen know that some-one is in the room.

OTHER TIPS – JUMPING ... If you jump from higher than the third floor, chances are you won’t survive the fall. Elevators ... Neverenter an elevator during a fire alert. Don’t Panic ... It is contagious and almost irreversible once it sets in. If you understand what ishappening, what to do, where to go and how to get there, you are unlikely to panic.
