15-16 Oct 2014 – Sacramento, California
23rd Annual Conference and Meeting
2014 - The Year of Groundwater. 2014 is shaping up to be a landmark year in California's water history, and groundwater is the focus. As groundwater levels decline and the land surface subsides during one of the worst series of droughts the state has experienced, Governor Brown's administration is proposing to provide legislative and other support to local entities to improve groundwater management. Recent hearings held by the state on groundwater sustainability also indicate that industry associations, grower groups and the state are evaluating efforts to preserve and protect local control over groundwater management, and also to allow for state intervention where local efforts are unsuccessful or nonexistent. GRA's 23rd Annual Conference and Meeting will focus on this topic with targeted sessions on the administration's efforts, associated legislation, and the perspectives of local organisations.
Organised by The Groundwater Resources Association of California.
