With just over a month until we gather in the Hunter Valley, the franc.2025 program is set to address the most urgent challenges facing the stormwater industry today. This conference isn’t just about theory; it’s about finding actionable solutions to real-world problems.
Here are just a few of the critical topics you can expect to dive into:
- Confronting Climate Change and Urban Flooding: The “Flooding and Climate Change” stream will explore the implications of the 2024 update to Australian Rainfall and Runoff and new resilience-based approaches to managing urban floods.
- Addressing Invisible Pollutants: How do we manage what we can’t easily see? The “Invisible Pollutants” stream tackles the complex issues of contamination in biofilters and the passive treatment of PFAS-contaminated runoff.
- Future-Proofing Through Smart Asset Management: The “Asset Management” theme sessions will offer lessons on managing assets across multiple councils and discuss the critical importance of keeping WSUD systems functional over their entire lifecycle.
- The Future of the Industry with Stormwater 2030: We are proud to present the “Stormwater 2030” session, a forward-looking discussion on the initiatives shaping the next decade of stormwater practice.
These sessions, and many more like them, are your opportunity to get up to speed with the latest research, strategies, and technologies.
