Today, water planners and policymakers around the world are moving to an integrated water management approach, based on the notion that all water has incredible value: surface water, drinking water, wastewater, recycled water, groundwater, and stormwater. Called the “One Water” movement, this approach takes a holistic view of a community’s multiple water resources, integrating each piece of the urban water cycle into one system.
