Most people refer to an ICT-enabled water system as a “smart water system” or a “smart water network.” Smart water is driven by four urgent realities: 1.) water is scarce; 2.) water is at risk; 3.) water is underpriced; and 4.) water infrastructure is expensive. This year, we've focused this annual supplement on successful project stories from across North America. Project stories offer a comprehensive approach to reporting on new technology in the industry and how it is applied in the field. We've also presented a few projects that demonstrate some unique trends in the design, construction, operation and management of water and wastewater systems.
