Pat Mulroy, a leading figure in Western water and the former general manager of the Southern Nevada Water Authority who oversaw the agency during a major period of growth and drought, will deliver this year’s Anne J. Schneider Lecture.

The annual water law and policy lecture will be held on April 6, 2016 at Crocker Art Museum in Sacramento.

Mulroy will speak on “Interdependent Resilience: Beyond the Doctrine of Prior Appropriation.”

This lecture and cocktail reception are free but participants can choose to make a tax-deductible donation, no matter how small, to the Anne J. Schneider Fund when registering. The Fund underwrites this event and makes donations to organizations that focus on natural resources education and conservation.
