2021 Salt Lake County Watershed Symposium

The Watershed Symposium fulfills an important part of our mission to engage the public and stakeholders on issues related to watershed health. The primary goals of the Watershed program include integrated watershed planning, data collection and analysis, stream restoration and protection, and outreach and public involvement.

Salt Lake County Watershed Planning & Restoration

Join us online for the 15th Annual Watershed Symposium! Together we continue the important conversations on watershed issues in our region.

<p>Free and open to all, the Salt Lake County Watershed Symposium is one of the best opportunities to network and build relationships toward supporting a healthier watershed. Participants from nonprofit, government, business, and academic organizations gather each year for unique learning opportunities and thought provoking presentations that address watershed and water quality issues in Salt Lake County and beyond. </p><p><a href="https://watershedsymposium2021.sched.com/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Conference schedule &amp; speaker directory</a></p><h3><strong>Live and on-demand content</strong></h3><p>The 2021 Symposium will be virtual again this year with live sessions and virtual networking in Webex, as well as pre-recorded presentations available on-demand.  The live content will be recorded and available online after the conference. </p><p><strong>Keynote speaker Sarah Hinners</strong>, landscape and urban ecologist and director of the Center for Ecological Planning and Design at the University of Utah, will kickoff the Symposium with her message on resilience in the face of change.</p><h3><strong>Virtual networking</strong></h3><p>We&#x27;re trying out breakout sessions (in Webex) to provide opportunities for virtual networking this year.  A place to visit with local organizations at their virtual &quot;tables&quot;, continue Q&amp;A with speakers, or grab a free &quot;table&quot; to meetup with friends and colleagues.  This will never replace the hallway conversations and other great networking  opportunities at an in-person Symposium, but hopefully it will come close. Please give it a try! </p><h3><strong>What people love about the Watershed Symposium</strong></h3><p><em>&quot;The Symposium is tremendously important to the future of all of Utah.&quot;</em></p><p><em>&quot;I learned a lot, and came away energized and looking forward to doing what I can to help remediate/preserve our local watersheds.&quot;</em></p><p><em>&quot;It&#x27;s a wonderful gestalt of useful and insightful information about what&#x27;s going on in the watershed, which is of course an important bottomline.&quot; </em></p><p><em>&quot;I look forward to this every year, and you never disappoint!&quot;</em></p><h3><strong>Visit the archives</strong></h3><p>Interesting in presentations, speaker bios, or photos from prior years?
