Day 1 of this expanded annual conference features a "Water-Energy Nexus Workshop: Deployment, Demonstration and Field Implementation in Water Districts." Several MBCA Directors attended this conference in 2017 and 2018 and found the content quite valuable. In this document you can read Ruth Rieman's summary of the 2017 conference and a brief note about the 2018 conference. A detailed agenda plus registration information ($50 for Day 1, $70 for Day 2, $110 for both days) can be found at the sponsoring agency's website, the Center for Environmental Research and Technology.
