9/16/2021 We had a fruitful WaterJam conference

We have three oral presentations and five posters (listed below) presented at the WaterJam. Zhaohui received a 1st place award for his poster. Most importantly, we met our team alumni and many old friends from utilities and consulting firms that we have not met for two years due to the pandemic.
