SPONSORED CONFERENCE: American River Watershed Conference
The Roles of Science and Management
California State University, Sacramento
Conference DatesApril 21 – 22, 2005
Technical Sessions April 23, 2005:
Information Session for the General Public
Purpose of Conference
The College of Natural Sciences and Mathematics at California State University, Sacramento and The Center for Regional Environmental Science and Technology (CREST) are pleased to announce the next American River Watershed Conference. The goals of this conference are to review existing studies on the American River Watershed, facilitate the exchange of information between groups and agencies, and foster coordination of future projects.Who Should AttendAgency and industry scientists and managers, special interest groups and members of the general public are all invited to register for technical sessions on Thursday and Friday, April 21st and 22nd. Members of the general public will be especially interested in the Science Forum on watershed issues and water quality, held Saturday, April 23, 2005. This forum will coincide with Earth Day events at California State University, Sacramento.Host AgenciesThis year’s conference is hosted and organized by the following organizations: • Army Corps of Engineers • California Department of Fish and Game • California Department of Water Resources • California State University, SacramentoCollege of Natural Sciences and Mathematics • Floodplain Management Association • Groundwater Resources Association of California • National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration – Fisheries • Placer County Water Agency • Sacramento Area Flood Control Agency • Sacramento County Parks • Sacramento Groundwater Authority • Sacramento Metropolitan Utility District • Sacramento Region Water Forum • Save the American River Association • Sierra College Natural History Museum • Surface Water Resources, Inc. • University of California, Davis • US Bureau of Reclamation • US Fish and Wildlife Service Anadromous – Fish Restoration Program • US Geological Survey, Water Resources Division
