New Policies for Data Centers and Large Water Users

May 4 @ 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm

Free

How can we ensure large water users such as data centers use our water resources sustainably and prevent pollution in our communities? As data centers proliferate across the Great Lakes region, federal, state and local governments are proposing new frameworks and policy solutions to manage their impact, including the POWER Act (SB4016/HB5513) in Illinois. At the same time, businesses are innovating sustainable solutions that reduce water use and prevent pollution. Hear from experts about the impact of these water users and solutions. Ask your questions on this virtual event.

This event is part of Chicago Water Week, presented by Current.

  • Andrea Densham, Director of Regional Government Affairs, Alliance for the Great Lakes
  • Andrew Rehn, Director of Climate Policy, Prairie Rivers Network
  • Helena Volzer, Senior Source Water Policy Manager, Alliance for the Great Lakes
  • Remarks by IL State Senator Ram Villivalam
