U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Deputy Administrator Bob Perciasepe will be the keynote speaker at AMWA’s 2014 Water Policy Conference, to be held April 6-9 in Washington, D.C.

His career spans four decades in public policy and advocacy, including serving as EPA Assistant Administrator for Water under President Clinton.
From his position as second in command at EPA, Perciasepe will offer unique perspectives on the agency’s policy priorities for the water sector in the area of climate change – sustainability, resilience, adaptation and mitigation. He is also expected to address other critical water issues including water quantity and quality, as well as infrastructure repair and replacement.
