Water Meeting in Hanford, Aug. 9
State Assemblymember Rudy Salas (D-Bakersfield) will lead a group
discussing California's water crisis during a hearing in Hanford on Aug. 9.
Salas, chairman of the Select Committee on Regional Approaches to
Addressing the State's Water Crisis, will be joined by local and regional water
experts to share real-time data and facts about the water crisis and how it
affects the Central Valley.
Topics will range from critical water issues like supply cutbacks and aging
infrastructure to record droughts and the deteriorating Sacramento-San Joaquin
Delta.
"It is critical that after these meetings, we have an accurate
assessment of the Valley's water needs and what future options should be
considered to improve and stabilize water reliability through the region and
state," said Salas, in a release. "Having a reliable, clean water
source is vital to the health, safety and economic growth of our state's population
and economy."
The hearing will take place from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. in the Kings County
Board of Supervisors Chamber, 1400 W. Lacey Blvd. The public is encouraged to
attend.
