Widespread difficulty obtain ing new water supplies to support population growth inhibits sustainable a nd affordable development. New competing demands for water to support clea n energy development\, data centers\, and other emergent technologies are stressing existing water supplies and suppliers even further. Meanwhile\, four consecutive years of snowpack drought have fundamentally revised our expectations of future water supply availability. And the increasing occur rence and severity of acute weather events (such as heat domes and atmosph eric rivers) have unbalanced the historical hydrograph away from periods o f peak demand. \nThe 2026 AWRA-WA State Conference will bring together wat er professionals\, policymakers\, engineers\, scientists\, lawyers\, stude nts\, and regulators to explore the challenges and opportunities ahead thr ough thought-provoking sessions and candid discussions. \nWhy Attend?   \n\nHear from leading experts and decision-makers shaping Washington’s w ater future.\nEngage in open conversations to learn from past efforts and shape smarter strategies moving forward.\nGain actionable insights and str ategies for navigating uncertainty and change.\nExpand your network with w ater resource professionals from across the state.\nYour registration incl udes a 2027 AWRA-WA membership and directly supports chapter events\, stud ent fellowship program\, and this conference.\n\nNew ideas\, new voices\, and diverse expertise are essential right now.
