Part 1: Logistics of Regional Partnerships
Small water systems must meet the same regulations as large water systems without the economies of scale enjoyed by larger systems. Likewise, private well owners are stuck shouldering the operations and maintenance cost of their water equipment all on their own. The challenges of maintaining safe water quality, whether you are regulated or not, are not only expensive, but can be life threatening. Join us for an open discussion of how regionalization of drinking water utilities and private well communities has allowed for increased sustainability.
Part 2: Regional Solutions to Complex Problems: Compliance, Eligibility and Timelines
RCAC staff specialists and guest speakers will comprise a panel to discuss the future of small water systems in California and how the Waterboards are supporting public water systems who are willing to explore regional solutions. A Question-and-Answer session will be provided for attendees to address the panel.
For questions about registration, please email RCAC Events at registration@rcac.org or call (916) 447-9832 ext. 1429.
