This week we spoke with Josina Morita, Commissioner for the Metropolitan Water
Reclamation District of Greater Chicago (MWRD). The MWRD, one of the largest
water districts in the country, employs 2,000 people, and has been providing clean drinking water and managing wastewater for Chicagoans since 1889.
Commissioner Morita talks about historical engineering feats (reversal of the
Chicago River and TARP- Tunnel and Reservoir Plan) the district has completed,
the challenges a big City faces in hardening its water infrastructure to be more
resilient to climate events and why protecting local freshwater sources is more
important now than ever.
