  3. TCCC Global Water Stress: 2008 Update Today Production Volume Classified - Internal use

  4. Water Stress: North America Operations

  5. DroughtAnalysis (1 Year-through late 2009): CCNA

  6. Rate of Change from Climate, Population Growth and Development

  7. Business Case Water is: • The main ingredient in all of our beverages • Essential to our manufacturing processes • A life-sustaining resource for the communities and ecosystems that make our business possible • A key component of many of our ingredients, including sugar “Water is not just important to our businesses. It is critical to the communities we serve. We cannot have a sustainable business unless the communities we serve are sustainable themselves.” E. Neville Isdell

  8. Assessment: Global Water Risk Assessment Sample Plant Water Risk Profile

  9. A 10-year Vision for Water Stewardship Best-in-class in water use efficiency & compliance on wastewater management 1. Improve Plant Performance 2. Help Protect Watersheds Support the protection of watersheds in water-stressed regions where we operate TNC 3. Support Community Initiatives Help enable equitable access to clean drinking water in underserved communities where we operate 4. Make a Global Difference Help mobilize the International Community

  10. Our Water Conservation Goal Our water conservation goal is to return to communities and nature an amount of water equivalent to what we use in all of our beverages and their production Water Efficiency REDUCE Stringent Wastewater Treatment Standards RECYCLE Support Healthy Watersheds and Sustainable Community Water Programs REPLENISH

  11. Watershed Partnerships Can Replenish Water Sources North America system has over 50 active watershed projects Example Flint River Basin partnership with The Nature Conservancy • Funded by the TCCC Foundation • Variable rate irrigation • Reducing farm water use by 17% • Project saves hundreds of millions of liters per year

  12. Replenish: Conserving Freshwater Resources US Southeast Rivers and Streams • Facing highest extinction rates in North America due to degraded water quality from population growth, poorly planned development, agriculture, mining and forestry operations • Goal: To harmonize urban growth with the protection of the basin by increasing sustainable water policies and practices

  13. Assess: Source Vulnerability Assessment Process • SVA Process Includes: • Hydrology/Hydrogeology • Land use • Pollution sources • Competing users • Regional Water Supply Plans • Climatic Effects • i.e., drought susceptibility • Water Rights, Permits and Policies • Social/Community Issues • Plant Water Resource Management Team • Output – Source Protection Plan

  14. Vulnerability Assessment – Land Use Restoration Recreation (hunt clubs) Silviculture Beef Cattle Row and Hay Crops* Dairy Operations* Sand Mining* Rural Residential Subdivisions* Old Phosphate Mining *Activities of high concern.
