September 23, 2020
Please join us virtually on Wednesday, September 23, 2020, from 10:30 AM – 12:00 PM, for a very special MWDOC Water Policy Forum as we welcome keynote speaker Michael George, Delta Watermaster, State Water Resources Control Board. Mr. George will reflect on the past year’s developments with Delta Conveyance, and discuss future projects that will enhance Southern California’s water supplies and reliability.
California’s development from a sparsely populated wildland to a technological and agricultural powerhouse is owed to the waters of the Sacramento-San Joaquin Bay Delta. Population growth, and the need for infrastructure to sustain it, transformed once biodiverse wetlands into a fragile system that has impacted local wildlife and human inhabitants alike. Federal, state, local, and environmental organizations have been squaring off for decades over how to manage the Delta, all while native fish species teeter on the brink of extinction, and even the wettest years see limited water exports for agriculture and human needs. Today, Delta stakeholders race to make voluntary agreements, finding common ground so fish, farm, and folk can coexist in support of California’s trillion-dollar economy.
