Project Summary: Regional mapping of water supply infrastructure on the Oregon Coast will enable and demonstrate the effectiveness of applying the One Water framework for resilient co-management of natural and built water systems, while advancing research in and potential application of unconventional water resources, data science, research computing, and the social sciences, arts, and humanities. Access to information on current state and layout of the region's water infrastructure will lead to lower regional management costs, increased access to state funding, and greater resilency to natural disruptions.
