On Jan. 19, nearly a year after the sudden death of William J. Worthen, the champion for an e-book on non-potable water reuse in buildings, the team shepherding the project to completion is releasing the free-to-all e-guide.
The "Non-Potable Water Reuse Practice Guide" is a "living breathing document" and will be updated as needed, says Kyle Pickett, managing principal of sustainability consultant Urban Fabrick Inc. and co-founder and executive director of the William J. Worthen Foundation. The group, formerly known as the Urban Fabrick Collaborative, was recently renamed in honor of its co-founder Worthen, who died last Jan. 28.
