StormCon fills a vital need by bringing government officials responsible for public health and safety and protecting our water supplies together with private sector engineers, consultants, project developers, and solution providers. With the urgent demand to protect our water supplies, the pollution prevention strategies and technologies being discussed and on display at StormCon should not be missed.
