SUMMARY:Session 2: North and South America — From Established Regulation
  to Integrated Water Systems
LOCATION:Plenary Theater
DESCRIPTION:North and South America offer a diverse range of regulatory mo
 dels\, from mature utility regulation to rapidly evolving frameworks resp
 onding to water scarcity\, climate pressures\, and growing reliance on de
 salination and reuse.\n\nThis panel will examine how regulatory approache
 s are adapting as the assumptions behind traditional models change\, and 
 as water systems become more interconnected. Speakers will explore where 
 existing regulatory instruments are coming under strain\, how the growth 
 of non-conventional supplies is affecting regulatory influence across the
  water value chain\, and what is required to move from integration in pri
 nciple to integrated regulation in practice.\n\nThe discussion will focus
  on three questions:\n\n• What assumptions behind established regulator
 y approaches are proving hardest to sustain?\n• As desalination and reu
 se grow\, where does regulatory influence weaken across the water value c
 hain?\n• What does effective\, system-wide regulation need to deliver i
 n practice: greater efficiency\, resilience\, investment confidence\, and
  public value?\n\nThe panel will draw on experience from across the Ameri
 cas to identify practical lessons that can inform regulators facing simil
 ar challenges worldwide.\n\nParticipating countries: United States\, Cana
 da\, Brazil\, Chile\, Peru.
