Who organizes the Indiana Water Summit?

Since 2022 the Summit has been organized by a dedicated Working Group who’s planning revolves around the Indiana Water Roadmap that has been developed through extensive input and discussion in previous years. At their initial meetings, Working Group members listed short-term priorities of including more water users in their deliberations, increasing engagement with regulators, supporting greater legislator involvement and action on water issues, and advocating funding for water resource protection.
