The data center boom and general growth of industrial markets have pressured water systems to meet rising demands. Municipal, industrial and private water systems are redefining the water supply pie chart. Whether the purpose is meeting demand, achieving ESG goals, or simply a good business decision, water reuse is a vital part of that pie, and stormwater reuse will play a part in its equation.

Learning Objectives:

• Explain how growth in data centers and industrial development is increasing pressure on municipal and private water supply systems.

• Identify the role of stormwater capture and reuse in supplementing water supply and reducing demand on potable water resources.

• Evaluate how stormwater reuse strategies can support operational resilience, sustainability goals, and long-term water resource management.
