Robustness ToTo T RECOVER Resilience System Performance (%) 100% PoPo Time

Robustness ToTo T RECOVER Resilience System Performance (%) 100% PoPo Time Focus of presentation: What is the vulnerability of OWTS performance to changes in weather and climate variables? OWTS Fragility

Improve risk communication about OWTS solutions compared to other sanitation alternatives to: Enable risk-informed planning decisions Advise risk mitigation Build institutional capacity to respond Objective:

Temperature & Precipitation Stream Flow

No. Major Repairs

R 2 = No. of Precip. Events (> 5 inches) 2 Total Annual Precip. (inches) 3 Max Annual Temp.

Projection for temperature and precipitation increases by end of 21 st century leading to weather impacted events such as the 2013 Boulder Flood
