On behalf of the Southern Nevada Water Authority and the local
Las Vegas Valley community, it is my pleasure to welcome you to the second WaterSmart
Innovations Conference and Exposition .
For those of you who joined us for the inaugural WaterSmart Innovations in 2008, welcome back! And, for those who are first-time
attendees, we’re grateful that you’ve taken time from your busy schedule to share your knowledge about the growing importance
of water efficiency .
No matter where you are from—Latin America, Europe, Asia, the Middle East, Africa or Australia—you no doubt are facing
some of the most pressing water-efficiency challenges of your career, induced by the effects of climate change and ever-
increasing worldwide demand on already limited supplies .
In North America, the American Southwest—including Southern Nevada—is in the throes of a nearly decade-long drought .
Meanwhile, other parts of the country, including areas unaccustomed to prolonged water shortages, are enduring similar if not
worse drought conditions .
This is where WaterSmart Innovations enters the picture . While this one conference alone cannot provide “silver bullets” that
can resolve the myriad water shortage issues facing nations around the world, it does serve as a platform for collaboration and
sharing of ideas and experiences . From this dialogue, water agencies, elected officials and others can take steps to implement
programs that can enhance our current water efficiency practices, and mitigate some of the effects of climate change on their
ability to supply water to their constituents .
Finding and utilizing tools for the prudent and efficient use of our precious water resources is a global priority . With its comprehensive
professional sessions, expo hall and atmosphere of collaboration, WaterSmart Innovations gives you the tools you need to
achieve long-term, worldwide water sustainability to benefit generations to come .

m e s s a g e f r o m t h e p r o g r a m c h a i r m a n
Welcome to Las Vegas and to the second WaterSmart Innovations Conference and Exposition, the largest event of its kind in the world .
The inaugural WSI held in October 2008 drew more than 1,500 attendees from 43 states and 17 nations . Representing a
broad spectrum of disciplines—water managers, elected officials, “green” plumbers, landscape irrigators, and so on—they
came together to share their ideas and learn from one another, with the common goal of using their newfound knowledge
at home to achieve greater levels of water efficiency .
While the water savings gleaned from WSI will be a function of how widely the ideas shared here are adopted, one thing
is certain: Attendee response to the professional sessions and the volume of traffic in the expo hall reflected the pressing
need and pent-up demand for a conference of this type . It also provided conference planners with a foundation to fine-tune
various elements of the program to make it an even more viable and valuable tool for global water professionals .
To that end, we owe a debt of gratitude to the partners and sponsors whose assistance has helped make WSI ’09
possible . You will find a list of these organizations on pages 20 and 21 . Among them are some of the most recognized
names in the realm of water efficiency; we appreciate their commitment to this cause .
For the next three days, you will have myriad opportunities to interact with water efficiency experts from around the
world . This is time well spent, as sharing creativity and knowledge in an atmosphere of collaboration is the catalyst for
finding innovative approaches to the water efficiency challenges we all face .
Thank you for joining us .

Welcome to the second annual WaterSmart In novations Conference and Exposition spon-sored by the Southern Nevada Water Authority.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is once again a proud co-sponsor of this event, and I hope ev-eryone will take advantage of this excellent opportunity to network and learn more about the latest advances in water effi ciency.
Since EPA launched WaterSense® in 2006, more than 1,000 utilities, manufacturers, retailers, irrigation profession-als, and other organizations have joined forces to build a strong marketplace for water-effi cient products and servic-es. With the help of our outstanding partners, WaterSense helped Americans save 9.3 billion gallons of water in 2008.I applaud all who have contributed to this eff ort.
I would like to extend a special con-gratulations to the 2009 WaterSense Partners of the Year who will be announced on Wednesday, October 7 at an Awards Banquet co-sponsored by the Alliance for Water Effi ciency. These partners have distinguished themselves in achievements to advance the WaterSense program. In addition to recognizing them at the banquet, please stop by the WaterSense booth to learn more about these outstanding organizations and individuals. I look forward to sharing this celebration with all of you.

GreenPlumbers® is an innovative, national training and accreditation program that assists plumbers
in understanding their role in the environment and public health. The organization’s goal is to train
and deploy a green army of thousands of plumbers to promote the benefits of water conservation
and the reduction of GHG emissions. The focus is on changing
consumer and plumbing behavior using energy efficiency and water saving technologies. How
can we expect the homeowners and business people of America to be serious and knowledgeable
about water and energy conservation unless the plumbers that bring the water and energy to their
houses are not equally serious? The GreenPlumbers® goal is nothing less than complete culture
change for the plumbing industry.

ASHRAE Standard 191 Committee Meeting – Cypress Room
The American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) will host
an open committee meeting Thursday, October 8, from 7:15 a.m. to 9:15 a.m. in the Cypress Room
to discuss a proposed national water efficiency standard.
The meeting will focus on the proposed Standard 191, also known as the “Standard for the Ef-
ficient Use of Water in Building, Site, and Mechanical Systems.” If adopted, Standard 191 would
establish requirements for the amount of water used to operate HVAC, plumbing and landscape
irrigation systems in all buildings except one- to three-story residential.
ASHRAE is writing the standard in conjunction with the American Water Works Association, U.S.
Green Building Council and American Society of Plumbing Engineers. All WaterSmart Innovations
attendees are encouraged to attend and provide their input to the committee.

Australian water expert Dr . Jim Gill Keynote luncheon speaker – Thursday, October 8
Climate change and its effects on water supplies have spawned a growing global crisis . In Australia,
a continent/nation whose people have faced drought for generations, the challenges are especially
pronounced . Dr . Jim Gill, inaugural chairman of Water Australia and past CEO of the Water Corporation
of Western Australia, will address these issues as the keynote luncheon speaker Thursday, October 8 .
In 2009, following 13 years as CEO of the Water Corporation of Western Australia, Dr . Gill was selected
to chair Water Australia, a joint public-private organization created to disseminate Australian technology
and expertise in water resource management .
During his tenure at the Water Corporation, Dr . Gill earned praise for developing innovative programs to reduce water demand and
diversify water resources in Western Australia, countering an enormous reduction in the yield of traditional surface water sources . His
other milestone achievements include a desalination plant that uses renewable energy, programs to enhance water supplies through
agricultural irrigation efficiency and a system for aquifer storage and recovery of treated wastewater .
Under Dr . Gill’s guidance, the agency achieved an annual system-wide water use reduction of 45 gigaliters (approximately12 billion gallons) .
In 2008, Dr . Gill received the International Water Association’s prestigious Grand Award for mastering the implications of climate change in
Australia, and this year he was made an Officer in the Order of Australia, one of the nation’s highest honors . He was named Australian Civil
Engineer of the Year for 2006 . He holds degrees from the University of Western Australia, University of Cambridge and Harvard University .
PepsiCo International Sustainability Director Dan Bena Opening session speaker – Wednesday, October 7
Dan Bena, Director of Sustainability, Health, Safety, and Environment for food and beverage giant
PepsiCo, will be the opening keynote speaker Wednesday, October 7 .
Under Mr . Bena’s guidance, PepsiCo has adopted a “Performance with Purpose” operating model
with environmental sustainability as a cornerstone . The initiative includes minimizing environmental
impacts of operations and extending across supply chains and communities . In 2007, PepsiCo
adopted rigorous enterprise-wide global metrics to track its environmental footprint, and was one
of the first companies of its size to publicly commit to quantitative resource conservation goals .
Water stewardship is a core focus of the company . In the initiative’s first year, PepsiCo’s beverage businesses reduced water consumption
by 9 percent, electricity by 8 percent and fuels by 7 percent on a per unit of production basis . The corporation’s foods businesses reduced
water consumption by 6 percent, electricity by 3 percent and fuels by 3 percent . All are on track to achieve their 2015 targets .
Earlier this year, PepsiCo became the first company in its league to formally recognize water as a human right, and commit to
preserving this right .
Mr . Bena also has served as chairman of American Beverage Association’s Water Resources Committee and chairman of the International
Society of Beverage Technologists Emerging Scientific Interests Subcommittee and Subcommittee for Sustainable Development . He
serves on the Public Health Committee of the Safe Water Network, and is a member of the Water Core Working Group of the World
Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) and the World Economic Forum’s Water Planning Board .
