Take an ASR workshop
Thursday, March 10, 2022 by Tai Moses
Two upcoming virtual workshops offered by Austin Water will plumb the depths of the Aquifer Storage and Recovery project, a “water supply strategy to store available water in an aquifer for later recovery and use,” says the city utility. Attendees can learn all about ASR systems, which are already in use in San Antonio, El Paso and Kerrville and are becoming a lot more common, not just in Texas but around the world. ASR is part of the city’s Water Forward plan, a “road map for Austin’s water future for the next 100 years.” The workshops will share information that staffers have collected about ASR, solicit input on equity and affordability considerations and answer any questions that might come up. Register here for the March 24 workshop; register here for the March 29 workshop. Both workshops are from 6-7:30 p.m.
