by Steve Kasower, Sr Research Economist, Center for Integrated Water
Research, UC Santa Cruz.
Hosted by Green Party,at Monterey Senior Center , Lighthouse and
Dickman, Monterey .



Important to all residents with concerns about desal, Carmel River and aquifer overdraft, sea water intrusion in Salinas River basin, conservation, recycle, reuse, stormwater, urban and agriculture trade-offs, relationship to growth, etc, etc, etc. Presentations to city councils and water agencies have started. This is the first presentation to consumers and grassroots interests. This plan is in the late stages of development, and can substitute for Cal Am's proposed desal at Moss Landing. It has been a wide-ranging dialogue among stakeholders, and is intended to be a reliable long term supply with financial and environmental advantages. Come, hear the latest, and add your opinions. Free and public invited. For info: George Riley, 645-9914
