Task Force Urged to Support Research On Climate Change Impacts on Water Cycle

摘要

Drinking water utility groups Feb. 20 urged a House-Senate task force to support establishing a federal research and monitoring program that would pinpoint the impacts of climate change on the water cycle. The Association of Metropolitan Water Agencies and the American Water Works Association wrote separate letters saying that accurate modeling is needed to gauge water quality and quantity impacts so utilities can decide how best to leverage their resources.
