Califorrnia Trout and the City of Mount Shasta developed two integrated projects through the Upper Sac IRWMP and received funding in November 2014 from the IRWM Emergency Drought funding round. The projects funded are a Water Supply Line Replacement project and a Water Meter Installation project, both of which will be implemented over the next year. The CalTrout portions of the projects include a Climate Change Vulnerability Analysis of the City’s water supply and Water Conservation Measures, including a water conservation mailer, “Get to Know Your Water Supply” video and three special Water Talks programs focused on water conservation.

About CalTrout's Water Talks Program

The Water Talks program is an ongoing series of educational events designed to provide people a place to learn about water related topics. The community generates topics for the Water Talks. Local and regional experts volunteer their time to give presentations and interact with community members in a professionally facilitated atmosphere that foster civil dialogue. Spring 2015 topics will include “Shasta River Studies”, “Water Policy” and “Mount Shasta Mud Flows.” To learn more contact Water Talks program manager Meadow Fitton at [email protected].
