SUMMARY: The Association of California Water Agencies is celebrating is centennial in 2010. Many activities are planned for the year. As part of the celebration, ACWA will be offering a variety of special sponsorship opportunities. Attached as Exhibits 2-A, is a brochure describing the sponsorship program. The committee may desire to promote the District’s name recognition by participating in one of the sponsorship programs. The District’s Public Outreach Plan states three goals that would be accomplished by supporting ACWA’s mission and participating in the sponsorship program: (a) encourage the public to actively participate in water management, augmentation and protection; (b) actively involve, educate and encourage the public to support water solutions; and (c) increase the public’s access to information on water regulations, updates and changes.
RECOMMENDATION: The committee should review Exhibit 2-A and decide if it would like to participate in the ACWA Centennial Sponsorship Program, and if so, what level of participation would be appropriate.
