In this workshop, you will learn:
– How extreme weather events can pose a risk to your system;
– How to build and assess impact scenarios to identify vulnerability; and
– The basics of asset management and how to conduct an asset inventory.

The workshop will also feature a presentation on how facilities can save money and conserve water with EPA’s WaterSense program.
