Solutions are in our nature.

HABs can shut down water distribution systems for days - threats to water security like these can harm residents and threaten the crops of a multi-billion dollar greenhouse food industry. The EEI is collaborating with a multi-disciplinary team of Scientists from UWin, Trent, Queens, and UofT to develop a source-linked system that can predict bloom formations before they happen. Early detection will trigger signals to a shore-side engineering response that will require optimized coordination of widespread network pumping, valve action, and storage procurement between municipal and commercial/industrial assets to bolster water supply security.
