Oct 7th Diversity in California Water Panel Discussion
The California water sector is rapidly hiring. How do we reflect California’s diversity at all levels of our workforce and foster a more inclusive environment with our co-workers? Watch the panel of water leaders discuss workforce development programs, new DEI efforts, what can hold back diversity efforts, and the champions we need to move these efforts forward. The webinar took place on October 7, 2021 as part of a series celebrating water professionals during California Water Professionals Appreciation Week. Watch Here.

CalEPA Hosting Microplastics Event
On November 17, the State Water Resource Control Board (State Water Board) is hosting a public workshop on their development of drinking water analytical methods and a testing and reporting plan for drinking water utilities. Previously, on September 28, the State Water Board’s microplastics webpage was updated with SOPs for using raman spectroscopy and infrared spectroscopy, while the proposed drinking water testing and report plan will be released on November 10. Comments on the methods and plan are due on December 22, and they’re expected to be adopted by the State Water Board at their February 15, 2022 meeting. Early next year, the State Water Board is also planning to release analytical methods for ocean water, sediment, and fish tissue.
