  • Furthering public understanding of the field of water resources, hydraulics, and environmental engineering
  • Coordinating local water resource related functions with other related organizations
  • Review and comment on state and local legislation related to water resource issues

    The Committee meets monthly to hear presentations and discuss technical water resource issues, studies, and projects. Field trips are occasionally offered to allow participants to witness firsthand how local water resource issues and challenges are being addressed.
