Description
Project Objectives
• To enhance precipitation projection and modeling techniques with risk‐based criteria to mitigate
risks for utilities (e.g., sewer overflows, flooding, stream network deterioration)
• To advance current practices for climate change rainfall statistics and projections by region, and
identify research gaps and other areas for refinement
• To advance an integrated and risk-based approach for adapting water infrastructure systems and
capital improvement planning to climate change while enhancing the protection of stream networks
to meet receiving water quality requirements and mitigate wet weather flows
