ABOUT THE PROGRAM
The federal government has been a key partner in California’s water management efforts for decades. From weather forecasting and flood management to water supply, state and federal agencies have had to work together to manage a complex system. As this partnership changes, how can California adapt? We speak with experts to envision a way forward.
