OWP research engineers Maureen Kerner and Brian Currier will discuss community water needs in California, California’s Human Right to Water (AB 685), various state agency programs and initiatives for improved water services for all, and OWP’s involvement through contracts with the CA State Water Resources Control Board (State Water Board) and Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The speakers will discuss OWP’s collaboration with the State Water Board, EPA, disadvantaged communities, and Sacramento State students through technical assistance addressing funding for equity and resilience, environmental finance programs, water sector needs assessments, lead testing and remediation at child care centers, and per- and polyfluorinated substances (PFAS) drinking water well testing. Through these and other technical assistance activities, OWP directly supports several Sac State Strategic Plan imperatives and confronts inequities, transforms student lives, and strengthens communities in alignment with Sac State’s goals as an Anchor University.
