The Union of Concerned Scientists, Self-Help Enterprises, and Community Water Center invite you to a panel discussion on local groundwater sustainability planning and the launch of the toolkit, Getting Involved in Groundwater; A Guide to California’s Groundwater Sustainability Plans.

Virginia Gurrola, former City Council member and Mayor, city of Porterville
Cruz Rivera, Vice-President, Plainview Mutual Water Company
