Water Resources Best Management Practices

Water and Energy Projects are catalysts in generating new employment opportunities and entrepreneurial efforts in communities that are in the forefront of managing watershed and water resources issues in urban and rural settings.
Managing Water Resources
Communities are confronting new and complex challenges to achieve safe and affordable water supplies, collect and treat waste water and storm water, flood protection, rivers and streams for fishing and swimming. There are also challenges with aging infrastructure and the impact of climate change on human health and ecosystems.
Challenges that Require New Infrastructure and Approaches to Urban Water Resources
Storm Water if rain is not properly managed and flows over impervious surfaces into the nearest storm drain, it can have a detrimental effect on rivers and streams. In an urban environment, storm water is also closely related to safety, flooding, waterway health and drinking water.
Waterways urbanization is responsible for many of the sources that contribute to waterway degradation. Increases in impervious surface area and runoff have negative effects on stream flow. Once the natural physical condition of a waterway is compromised by pollution or excessive runoff, it sets off a chain of degradation: erosion, water temperature changes and habitat loss.
Watershed groups, municipalities, agencies, and conservation groups working together to develop watershed and restoration plans, implement projects and return streams to healthy thriving systems by implementing watershed assessments and planning programs, quality control plans, floodplain protection, land use management and storm water best management practices and more.
Infrastructure Requires Continuous Inspection and Maintenance
Water Conservation the true cost of water in a property should be measured as the water rate + the sewer rate multiplied by the water consumption volume + plus fees and other associated costs. In addition, while the water usage profile varies by building type and use, mechanical systems account for 30 percent of water use in a typical building, with cooling towers nearly 50 percent and outdoor usage another 20-30 percent.
Water Heating Accounts for Eight Percent of Energy Consumption in Commercial Buildings
Sub meters help identify inefficiencies and malfunctions as leaks account for six percent of water usage and older fixtures consume up to five times more water prompting installation of leak detection systems.

An Eco Museum in Your Community



A local, collective, private and public, entrepreneurial and sustainable economic development effort to create new employment and wealth opportunities:

Local a project made specifically for your community that draws on the history, traditions and talents that are unique to your town and region; shared, and paid for in part, with the participation and resources of visiting individuals, families, businesses, non profits and many others.

Collective a multidisciplinary approach that rests on the following wealth creating pillars:

o   Education and Training
o   Water Conservation and Management
o   Energy Savings and Creation Programs
o   Tourism services
o   Local typical products

The way out of a low wage, dead end job spiral: continuous acquisition of new collective knowledge

Private and Public drawing on the resources, expertise and vantage points of both in a carefully constructed partnership that is unique to the culture, values and needs of your territory

Entrepreneurial the freedom to be creative, to try something new, to fail in order to succeed!

Sustainable quality skills that empower the individual to create new wealth in the community in respect of the environment

Why  a Museum we cannot think of any other place -  anywhere - where history and culture, knowledge and learning, local citizens and visitors, the past and the future can come together and, building on past achievements, create new opportunities.

can we help make one for you

Un Eco Museo nel Tuo Territorio

Un progetto locale, collettivo, imprenditoriale, pubblico e privato, per uno sviluppo economico sostenibile mirato a creare nuove opportunità di lavoro e di benessere sociale:

Locale un progetto realizzato appositamente per la tua comunità che attinge alla storia, le tradizioni ed i talenti unici della tua città e regione; condiviso, e pagato in parte, con la partecipazione e le risorse di persone e famiglie in visita, le imprese, i non profit e tanti altri soggetti.


Collettivo un approccio multidisciplinare allo sviluppo locale con:

o   Istruzione e formazione
o   Gestione delle risorse idriche
o   Risparmio energetico  e sviluppo di nuove risorse
o   Servizi turistici
o   Prodotti tipici locali

La via d'uscita dalla stagnazione economica: la continua acquisizione del sapere collettivo

Pubblico e Privato puntando ad un utilizzo efficace di risorse, competenze ed i vantaggi di entrambi in un partenariato costruito con la massima attenzione alla cultura, i valori e le esigenze del tuo territorio

Imprenditoriale libertà di creare e provare qualcosa di nuovo, anche fallire per poi avere successo!

Sostenibilità competenze professionali valide che consentono di creare un nuovo benessere socio-economico nel rispetto dell'ambiente

Perchè un museo c’è forse un altro luogo in cui la storia e la cultura, il sapere e l'apprendere, il cittadino ed  il visitatore, il passato e il futuro possono incontrarsi e, partendo dalle tradizioni locali, creare delle nuove opportunità.

possiamo contribuire a crearne uno anche per te

Per Saperne di Piu'
