Delta Policy Tour
The Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta is a natural treasure and a vital component of California’s water system. It spans five counties in northern California. Due to the State’s increasing population and a high demand for water, the Delta faces many ecological challenges that must be addressed in order to ensure its sustainability. To better understand those challenges, CLCA toured the Delta last year and will do so again this summer. The tour will allow members to appreciate why the Delta plays such a key role in supplying water across the State.
