Happy New Year!
As we bid farewell to the old and usher in the new, we want to take a moment to express our deepest gratitude to each and every one of you. Your continued support and dedication have made CASA what it is today. Take a look back at our Year in Review Summary and Graphic , both of which highlight many of our achievements in 2023. We truly appreciate your unwavering commitment to California’s clean water community and we look forward to seeing you in just a few weeks in-person at our Winter Conference in Palm Springs and our Washington D.C. Policy Forum.

CASA Member Survey: We Need Your Input
To help guide our priorities for the coming years, and maximize the value we provide for our membership, CASA has put together a brief survey. CASA rarely distributes surveys to our full membership, and your input is absolutely essential. This is your chance to weigh in on the important issues impacting your agency, let us know how you engage with CASA, and share which aspects of CASA membership you find most valuable (and also where we can improve!). The survey should take no more than 10 minutes to complete, and you can review a PDF copy of the questions prior to responding to the survey online. We are looking for responses from all individuals who engage with CASA, so multiple responses from a single agency or company are encouraged! As a valued CASA member, we thank you in advance for your participation.
