This important event will convene various water agencies, schools districts, administrators and staff, parent groups, and community-based organizations, among other experts, to spotlight the unique opportunities that schools hold to be sites for greening and stormwater capture projects.
Expert panelists will engage in insightful conversations covering three main topics:

- Describe specific case studies of impactful school-site projects with a special focus on how to locate, design, and implement projects by securing Measure W and Safe, Clean Water Program funds
- Address liability considerations and how to overcome contractual barriers to implementing stormwater capture projects on school campuses
This is a no-cost event, open and available for all. Please spread the word and we hope to see you there!
