Asset Management for Gray and Green Assets

Session 1 | Monday, May 16, 2022

Session 2 | Wednesday, May 18, 2022

*Register once for both sessions

Description: In this two-part online training series you will obtain a solid understanding of asset management and the unique characteristics of green and natural assets that need to be considered when incorporating these assets into the traditionally gray asset management process. With aging infrastructure, limited resources and regulatory requirements, a comprehensive approach to managing your system is vital. Asset management can help you overcome these challenges and manage your water system effectively. Additionally, it is important to remember that green assets have important functions to keep source waters healthy and reduce stormwater quality and quantity. As such, it is important to manage the green and natural components as assets. The asset management process can be used by anyone who wishes to manage any type of assets – whether green, gray or mixed.
