California Groundwater Tour Added to 2016 Schedule
Dig deeply into the latest progress on SGMA; visit wineries and dairies
Our 2015 Groundwater Tour was so popular, we decided to do another one for this fall.
Join us for an updated groundwater tour October 5-6 as we explore groundwater basins in Yolo, Colusa, Butte and Glenn counties and visit groundwater monitoring stations, wells, wineries, dairies and other interesting sites.
Learn about the importance of groundwater in each of these regions and how the Sustainable Groundwater Management Act is being implemented – each with different challenges and strategies for success. Hear from water managers, scientists, academics, farmers and habitat specialists how California’s groundwater situation affects different industries and populations.
In addition to SGMA, we will talk to experts on groundwater geology, quality, recharge, overdraft, subsidence, drinking water quality, conservation and agricultural use.
An early-bird discount is available until Sept. 5.The tour begins and ends at Sacramento International Airport. Tickets are on sale; click here for complete tour details. Contact Tour Director Dan Scott, or 916) 444-6240, with questions.
