SUMMARY:The dry tap liability: why failing to recycle water is a new D&O 
 crisis
DESCRIPTION:The paradigm for water management has fundamentally shifted. 
 Once considered a limitless utility\, reliable water access is now one o
 f the most critical vulnerabilities for both public and private enterpri
 ses in the face of persistent drought\, climate volatility and populatio
 n growth.\n\nFor sanitation companies and water utilities\, the 'dry tap
 ' scenario — the point at which supply can no longer meet demand — has m
 oved from a hypothetical worst case to a foreseeable business reality.\n
 \nIn this new reality\, water recycling and reuse are no longer innovati
 ve options\; they are essential components of climate adaptation and bus
 iness continuity.\n\nThis session confronts the profound legal exposure 
 for directors and officers who fail to act. We will explore how the deci
 sion to delay\, defer\, or reject capital investment in proven water reu
 se technologies is being reframed as a critical failure of oversight and
  a direct breach of fiduciary duty.\n\nWhen a utility fails\, or a corpo
 ration's operations halt due to a predictable water shortage\, stakehold
 ers — from investors to regulators to the public — will not ask if the b
 oard knew about water recycling\, but why they failed to implement it.\n
