Rainwater harvesting is an age-old method still used in many parts of the world today and it is on-the-rise in the United States. As flooding, water supply, and water quality issues continue to increase in the 21st century, rainwater collection systems offer a simple and time-proven solution. In the summer of 2009, ASCE presented an introductory webinar on Sustainable Water Management: Rainwater Collection Systems and Analysis. The webinar provided practical tools and tips to select and analyze rainwater collection systems. Design tips and operation and maintenance strategies were also discussed. Engineered Rainwater Collection and Case Studies for Sustainable Water Management takes this discussion a step further and will examine several case studies to illustrate system components, design, analysis, and operation. Case studies include residential, commercial, and park/public systems. This seminar is co-sponsored by ASCE's Environmental & Water Resources Institute (EWRI).
