THE CONCULSION

The 2005 Nonpoint Source Conference has concluded.  The conference was a great success, with approximately 330 people attending the event.  Please check back at this web page in January 2006 to view many of the presentations that were given at the conference.

 

ABOUT THE CONFERENCE

The California Nonpoint Source Conference brings together leaders from the agriculture, urban, forestry, marinas and other NPS categories, scientists and technical people, including managers, consultants, and industry staff, as well as policy makers and agency representatives and others to exchange ideas, successes, and lessons learned to improve future water quality programs and related watershed projects. This event will build on the successful 2003 NPS Conference, which was attended by more than 200 people. Conference participants will be able to learn from speakers who are implementing on-the-ground NPS projects throughout California with federal and/or state funds (e.g., CWA Section 319, and Propositions 13, 40, and 50). The conference will focus on the importance of designing projects to achieve measurable water quality improvements, and on techniques for monitoring results.
