Join us for the Watershed Network Nimbus Basin Habitat Project Tour & Lunch!
Experience the salmon run at Nimbus Basin, learn about the Regional Water Authority’s (RWA) Watershed Resilience Pilot Project, and enjoy a hosted lunch and discussion with fellow community members who care about the future of our region’s rivers. Lunch will be provided.
Hosted by the Regional Water Authority as part of the Watershed Resilience Pilot Program--funded by the California Department of Water Resources--this event offers a first-hand look at local watershed resilience in action and an opportunity to share your perspectives on how our communities can adapt to a changing climate. The Watershed Resilience Pilot Project team includes: the Regional Water Authority, Jacobs, Khadam Consulting, and Valley Vision.
We’ll begin the morning at the Nimbus Basin, learning about the Water Forum’s 2022 Habitat Project, which enhanced crucial habitat for native fall-run Chinook salmon and steelhead trout. Afterward, we’ll head to the Old Spaghetti Factory in Rancho Cordova for a hosted lunch and interactive discussion about climate resilience in the American, Bear, and Cosumnes River watersheds.
This workshop is free and open to the public.
We strongly encourage participation from public agency staff (cities, counties, regional agencies, special districts, state agencies, etc.), elected officials, non-profit and labor organizations, community-based organizations, private consulting firms, advocacy groups, students, and individuals interested in learning about climate change resilience in the American, Bear, and Cosumnes River watersheds to attend this free, engaging, and informative event.
Whether you represent a local organization, manage land, or simply care about the health of our rivers and communities, your participation can help ensure the Watershed Resilience Plan reflects the region's needs and priorities.
Please RSVP by November 10th. Space is limited. Contact grace.kaufman@valleyvision.org with any questions.
