Home Events CONFERENCES ACWA DC2022 – Annual Washington, D.C. Conference Meet and join fellow water agencies in Washington, D.C. to show the importance of California water issues. This annual event gives members a special opportunity to connect with fellow water agencies and show the importance of California water in the nation’s capital. Although originally planned for March 1-3, the event was moved in response to logistical challenges and the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic. The ACWA DC2022 Conference will be covering implementation of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA; P.L. 117-58) as well as insights and opportunities for the second session of the 117th Congress. There will also be two receptions held during the conference. What To Expect Due to the unpredictability of the ongoing pandemic, the conference will be notably different than in past years. Many Congressional and Administration offices are closed or require staff accompaniment to attend meetings and the Capitol Visitor Center remains closed to the public. Due to ongoing Covid-19 restrictions, ACWA will not be able to organize the traditional Tuesday advocacy day for attendees. Tuesday morning/afternoon programming, which is limited to Federal Affairs Committee Members, will be announced pending U.S. Capitol Reopening Rules. ACWA is working hard to bring attendees a valuable experience. Please see the Preliminary Agenda for program locations (subject to change).
