PROFESSIONAL PROGRAM Wednesday, June 13, 2018 WED10  Innovations in Construction Methods and Delivery 8:30–11:30 a.m. Room: Lagoon A Track: Infrastructure Design, Management and Project Delivery Moderator: Paul Thom Your Choice Matters: Smart Water Solutions to Reduce WED12  Non-Revenue Water 8:30–11:30 a.m. Room: Mandalay Bay Ballroom K Track: Innovation & Technology Moderator: John Fillinger Projects further the growth of a utility’s infrastructure and involve a significant amount of monetary investment, and when completed, are expected to service the utility and its customers for decades. Challenges occur throughout the planning, design and construction phases, and solutions are often as unique as the problems. This session highlights design/build techniques to get the project done. As technology has advanced, so too have opportunities for water utilities to be smarter about their systems. In the drive to create more efficient and sustainable water infrastructures, while reducing non- revenue water, utilities are beginning to use Internet of Things (IoT) technologies and existing cellular networks, next generation metering, and end water consumer engagement tools that can broaden overall ROI. Attendees will learn about IoT cellular networks, ultrasonic water metering, and the benefits of customer engagement tools to monitor water use and leaks. 8:30  Why the Design Team Matters—Two Perspectives One Vision Levi Wright, River City Construction, David Laliberte, Hazen and Sawyer 9:30  Effective Team Engagement to Mitigate the Impacts of Changes to Design Criteria Robert Link, Crowder Construction Company, Christopher Robards, Crowder Construction Company, Lauren Zuravnsky, HRSD, Andrew Newbold, Hazen and Sawyer 10:30  Fort Hood Belton Lake Recreation Area Wastewater Treatment Plant Energy Reduction Project Lance Klement, Garver, Jeff Sober, Garver WED11  Voice of the Customer: Listening to Medium Utilities 8:30–11:30 a.m. Room: Mandalay Bay Ballroom B Track: Innovation & Technology Moderator: Booky Oren The high-speed changes in the global water sector are continuously bringing new conditions and requirements to water utilities. While extremely large investments are needed to ensure adequate water supply for future generations, implementing innovative technologies might be the only way to make it realistic. Although the North American water market remains fragmented, utilities find common ground with similar challenges. The strength of the water market is that utilities are not typically competitors and would benefit from sharing of challenges to identify mutual needs that can be pursued in collaboration, and from exchanging ideas and success stories with peers. This session focuses on identifying the unique challenges faced by medium-sized utilities and the next steps toward applying innovative solutions to address utility needs. 8:30  Panel Discussion with Medium Utilities Joan Arthur, City of Tulsa Ted Corrigan, Des Moines Water Works Derwin Dy, City of Lakewood Bill HagenBurger, Beaver Water District Michael Hooker, Onondaga County Water Authority Eric Horvath, City of South Bend Andrew Jackson, Town of Gilbert Carrie Lewis, Portland Water District Patrick Shea, City of St. Cloud Brian Wheeler, TOHO Water Authority 66    ACE18 CONFERENCE | AWWA.ORG/ACE 8:30  The Internet of Things (IoT) and Smart City Applications  Bradley Lane 9:20  Next Generation Water Metering Jan Boyer, Badger Meter, Inc. 10:00  Smart Meters and Data Analytics to Detect and Report Leaks Wesley Schultz, California State University San Marcos 10:50  Panel Discussion Jan Boyer, Badger Meter, Inc.
