Is Greenwich Facing a Water Shortage?
– Moderator: Elizabeth Dempsey
– Panelists: John Mullaney, USGS; Patricia Sesto, Director of Environmental Affair, Town of Greenwich and Jeff Ulrich, Vice President of Supply Operations and Sustainability, Aquarion Water Company.

There is an increasing awareness that freshwater resources in Greenwich are limited and need to be protected both in terms of quantity and quality. Severe droughts and water overdraw affect not only the water users but also the decision-makers. “Water is everybody’s business.” Our group of panelists will explain the important connections between surface water and groundwater and how the action of one property owner may have lasting consequences on the entire water system.
