Tampa Florida Faces a Water Crisis of It's Own


Listen Later

Cities in Florida have been mandated to eliminate all surface wastewater storage by the year 2032. Tampa, for example, currently produces 50 million gallons of reclaimed water a day. And it’s wastewater that’s all being dumped into the beautiful Hillsborough Bay, which is not an ideal means of disposal.

In this JAIN Irrigation Training Series episode Florida-based irrigation specialist Michael Derewenko will provide background and details on this water infrastructure challenge Tampa is facing, along with the recommendations for solutions that have been proposed by industry leading experts.

During this session, you will learn the following:

  • Toilet to Tap
  • Eliminating discharges into Hillsborough Bay
  • Beyond Tampa, this will soon be a common municipal water management issue for cities and their populations throughout the South, as well as across the entire U.S.
