About the WEF San Joaquin Valley Land Subsidence Event...

On August 16, 2017, I had the unique opportunity of participating in person at the "Land Subsidence in the San Joaquin Valley" - a Water Education Foundation (WEF) Event - on the CSU Fresno Campus in Fresno, CA.

To those who might be interested in the various presentations made by Researchers from the California Department of Water Resources (DWR), the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Jet Propulsion Laboratory (NASA-JPL), the U. S. Geological Survey (USGS), and the Central California Irrigation District, a copy of the Briefing Agenda and five (5) Power Point presentations may be accessed via the following Water Education Foundation hyperlink:
