Live Webinar: The Healthy Waters Plan: Pathways Forward for Vancouver BC’s Water Future
2025-06-24 13:00 - 14:00 (America/Chicago)
The City of Vancouver, British Columbia, has been separating sewers since the 1970s to reduce combined sewer overflows and comply with its Liquid Waste Management Plan. Looking ahead, the City and its partners recently launched the Healthy Waters Plan (HWP) to address population growth, climate change impacts, and improve stormwater quality using green and grey infrastructure. Session participants will learn about Vancouver’s innovative engagement and planning process to integrate community values, technical data and structured decision-making to shape future investments. The approach and learnings are applicable to help address stormwater challenges and opportunities faced by cities across the U.S. The project aligned different perspectives and gained agreement on a pathway forward that optimizes infrastructure investments to reduce overflows and flooding and improve stormwater quality while addressing climate-related changes, population growth and reconciliation with First Nations. This case study session will share technical findings and the innovative engagement processes used in this plan that other stormwater leaders and U.S. communities can consider.

Live Webinar: Leveraging Biochar for Mainstream Stormwater Management
2025-10-23 13:00 - 14:00 (America/Chicago)
The Center for Watershed Protection (CWP) is working to accelerate the use of biochar as an innovative tool for improving stormwater management in the Chesapeake Bay and beyond.

This presentation will highlight CWP’s role in the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation funded project, Scaling Up Biochar in the Chesapeake Bay. Completed in Spring 2025, the project advanced research and partnerships and supported pilot projects demonstrating biochar’s effectiveness in reducing runoff and pollutants. In collaboration with the U.S. Biochar Initiative (USBI), CWP is also developing a practical stormwater biochar guidebook to help practitioners, municipalities, and decision-makers understand best practices for biochar use in stormwater best management practices. This guidance is expected to be completed by November 2025. Attendees will learn about the benefits of biochar in stormwater and gain insights into the opportunities, challenges, and future directions for integrating biochar into mainstream stormwater management.
