What will happen with water year 2016? Reservoirs started the year at record lows but recent storms have boosted storage levels. Will it be enough to lift California out of its historic drought? And what are the operation plans for California’s two big water projects – the State Water Project and the federal Central Valley Project?

These are just a few of the topics to be discussed at our free April 26 briefing “Water Year 2016: The Challenges of Water Project Operations.” The day-long event will be held at the Alice Peters Auditorium (PB 191) in the University Business Center at CSU Fresno.

This special briefing is cosponsored by the California Department of Water Resources and the Water Education Foundation in partnership with the Center for Irrigation Technology.

The event is free but you must register here. Seating is limited so register soon.

Check-in begins at 9:30 a.m. Complimentary coffee will be served. The program runs from 10:00 a.m. to noon and from 1:30 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. Lunch is on your own.
