Los Altos Hills Seminar: Innovations in Water Conservation

As our economy and population grow, so must innovations in water conservation and water reuse. Garth Hall, Deputy Operating Officer with Santa Clara Valley Water District will offer an overview of water supply and demand locally and statewide.

The District’s most impressive innovation partnership is the new Advanced Water Purification Center, producing 8 million gallons a day of potable water. Small scale innovations are also advancing.
