During this interactive presentation you<br />

unprecedented challenges with new<br />
strategies.<br />
The learning objectives are to:<br />
• Understand the impact of global<br />
change on our lives and work;<br />
• Learn how other organizations are<br />
adapting and meeting new challenges;<br />
• See – with new eyes – both the<br />
threats and opportunities for our<br />
business; and<br />
• Introduce and discuss our staffs’<br />
identified challenges as we move<br />
forward in the 21st century.<br />

Transitioning to JpIA”<br />
On March 28, 2012, the HBA Board voted<br />
to dissolve the <strong>ACWA</strong>/HBA and transfer<br />
the health benefits program to JPIA.<br />
The purpose of this seminar is to bring<br />
everyone up to date with the status of the<br />
process, as well as provide information on<br />
the plans and expectations to follow. It will<br />
also provide an opportunity for members<br />
to ask questions and provide input as the<br />
JPIA assumes responsibility for this very<br />
important program, particularly in light<br />
of upcoming legislative changes to the<br />
health care system in the United States.<br />
Please join us as we all move forward to a<br />
new venture.<br />

ACwA/JpIA seminar III: “sexual<br />
Harassment prevention for board<br />
members and management (Ab 1825):<br />
Take A new look”<br />
This course will take a “new look” at the<br />
issue of sexual harassment, particularly<br />
in light of new protected classes,<br />
technological advances, acceptable<br />
workplace behavior, and the age-old<br />
issue of respect for anyone associated<br />
with your district’s business. Other points<br />
covered by this course are understanding<br />
the California and federal sexual<br />
harassment laws, recognizing early signs<br />
of sexual harassment, and maintaining<br />
open communication in a respectful<br />
environment. By equipping management<br />
and board members with the knowledge<br />
they need to prevent and respond to<br />
harassment situations, this course<br />
helps to prevent and eliminate sexual<br />
harassment in the workplace.<br />

Benefit Restructuring”<br />
Governments everywhere are struggling<br />
with the rising costs of retirement and<br />
pension benefits. Most governments that<br />
are tackling the issue are adopting a<br />
second-tier with a lower benefit formula<br />
for future employees. History shows<br />
when financial times are good, employee<br />
groups successfully exert pressure to<br />
collapse the second tier back into the<br />
primary tier. Proposed GASB pension<br />
accounting changes further exacerbate<br />
questions about pension sustainability.<br />
This panel will examine creative solutions<br />
to containing costs while providing a<br />
competitive total compensation package<br />
and appropriate level of retirement<br />
benefits to the public agency workforce.<br />

Communications program: “Investing<br />
in water systems… A view from Cities”<br />
The challenges facing water providers<br />
to sell the need for local system<br />
improvements and secure the funding to<br />
make it happen has become a hot topic<br />
around the state. Hardly a day goes by<br />
that we don’t see a headline, read a blog<br />
or hear a radio interview. For city utility<br />
departments, the challenge takes on a<br />
whole different meaning as they compete<br />
with a variety of other city services and<br />
deal with city politics. So, how does a city<br />
message the need to invest and get buyin<br />
from their local leaders and customers?<br />
This panel will explore the challenges and<br />
the strategies for success.<br />

on water rates: why Have They<br />
Increased so much?”<br />
Panelists will reveal how they are dealing<br />
with the CIP and O&M changes that have<br />
occurred over the past 25 years or so. The<br />
backbone of systems that agencies use,<br />
were developed mainly through non-rate<br />
revenue (such as grants, federal ER mark<br />
or property tax). Some systems were<br />
actually covered directly by ratepayers<br />

primarily with system costs smoothed over<br />
decades through the use of low-cost, taxexempt<br />
borrowing. Some systems were<br />
developed over 30 years ago and the<br />
useful life of the system is coming to an<br />
end. As a result, rates must now bear this<br />
burden. Higher regulatory costs for both<br />
the quality of the water and the quantity<br />
available add to the cost. Per capita water<br />
consumption has fallen significantly over<br />
the 30 years. In the past, population<br />
growth rates have been able to mask the<br />
decreases due to reductions in per capita<br />
water consumption; however, with the<br />
current housing market, the growth rate<br />
has not been able to compensate for this<br />
decline. The panelists will provide insight<br />
to how they are managing these issues.<br />

water Industry Trends program: “Is your<br />
Agency ready? Developing an Effective<br />
salt/nutrient management plan”<br />
In 2009, the State Water Resources<br />
Control Board issued their Recycled Water<br />
Policy, designed to increase the beneficial<br />
use of recycled water from municipal<br />
wastewater sources in California. As part of<br />
the policy, the Board added a requirement<br />
that a salt/nutrient management plan be<br />
developed for each groundwater basin<br />
and sub-basin by 2014. Many agencies<br />
and stakeholder groups have begun<br />
crafting these plans, but many have yet<br />
to begin the process, and time is of the<br />
essence. Agencies in various stages of<br />
plan development will discuss how they<br />
are approaching the requirement and will<br />
offer tips for managers who need to start<br />
planning to meet the deadline.<br />

water Industry Trends program:<br />
“nitrates in Groundwater: How Can the<br />
problem be solved?”<br />
Nitrate contamination in groundwater<br />
basins is an issue that has plagued many<br />
parts of California for decades, including<br />
small and disadvantaged communities<br />
that are often served by private wells or<br />
lack adequate infrastructure and the ability<br />
to pay for treatment. While characterizing<br />
the sources in each area can be<br />
challenging, finding effective solutions to<br />
the problem for those drinking the water<br />
has proven to be even more difficult.<br />
Experts will speak to attendees about<br />
the latest efforts to solve this complex<br />
issue, including recommendations<br />
from the recently released report by Dr.<br />
Thomas Harter on nitrates in the Tulare<br />
Lake Basin and Salinas Valley (per<br />
SBX2 1, Stat. 2008), the role of state<br />
and regional regulatory agencies, how<br />
public water systems can assist in the<br />
effort, and environmental organizations’<br />
long-term work to advocate on behalf<br />
of communities affected by nitrate<br />
contamination.<br />

Employment practice issues are a very<br />

has its own policies and procedures in<br />
dealing with these issues. There are,<br />
however some basic “rules” that should be<br />
followed by everyone. General managers<br />
and human resource staff are generally<br />
the folks involved in dealing with human<br />
resource issues. Just where do board<br />
members fit in? What is their role, how<br />
involved should they be, when should<br />
they be involved, and what resources<br />
are available to them? This presentation<br />
will be an overview of the answers to<br />
these questions and will utilize real-life<br />
scenarios to assist in the explanation<br />
of the “do’s and don’ts” of this delicate<br />
topic. Hear how <strong>ACWA</strong>/JPIA has become<br />

business of water: what is the<br />

Institutional sector?”<br />
It is estimated the commercial, industrial<br />
& institutional (CII) sector consumes<br />
approximately 30 percent, or roughly<br />
2.6 million acre feet (MAF), of the total<br />
urban water use in California. The Water<br />
Conservation Act of 2009 (SBX7 7) directs<br />
the Department of Water Resources to<br />
work with the California Urban Water<br />
Conservation Council (CUWCC) and<br />
a state task force to produce a report<br />
to the Legislature documenting best<br />
management practices for the CII sector.<br />
What are the major findings of the report?<br />
What is the CII sector already doing<br />
about water use efficiency and how might<br />
anticipated future reductions in water<br />
use affect businesses’ environmental<br />
footprint and their bottom line? Listen to<br />
representatives from the Task Force and<br />
industry experts talk about their efforts<br />
and what they see as the future of CII<br />
water use in California.<br />

“Implementation of the EsA: building<br />
the bridge to Coequal Goals”<br />
The Endangered Species Act (ESA)<br />
implementation activities in California -<br />
particularly in the Delta - have had a major<br />
impact on water deliveries in recent years.<br />
While local water agencies support the<br />
goals of the ESA, they believe that the<br />
state and federal agencies have greater<br />
discretion to develop comprehensive<br />
strategies that also consider economic<br />
and social stability. During this program<br />
you will hear from a federal perspective<br />
as to how member agencies may play<br />
a constructive role in providing specific<br />
ideas on how to better administer the<br />
ESA.<br />

what Every water District needs to<br />

Act’s Critical Habitat and its Effects on<br />
local water supply”<br />
This session provides important new<br />
information about the U.S. Fish & Wildlife<br />
Service’s regulations designating critical<br />
habitat in rivers, streams, reservoirs,<br />
and groundwater storage areas and the<br />
potential impact on the development,<br />
conveyance, storage, and operations<br />
and management activities of local water<br />
supply projects. As a result of legal<br />
challenges to previous critical habitat<br />
designations, which usually excluded<br />
local water supply projects, USFWS is<br />
redesignating critical habitat and, in many<br />
cases, expanding the boundaries of<br />
critical habitat to include areas essential<br />
to the development and operation and<br />
management of local water supply<br />
projects. Panelists will provide the<br />
most current developments in litigation,<br />
regulation and policy addressing this<br />
issue.<br />

“Artificial Recharge, Aquifer<br />
storage and recovery: science to<br />
Help Effectively manage Critical<br />
Groundwater basins”<br />
Prior to implementing artificial recharge<br />
and storage programs, the following<br />
questions need to be answered: Is the<br />
site suitable for this artificial recharge?<br />
What is the anticipated recharge rate?<br />
Are there near-surface geologic layers<br />
that will prevent water from reaching the<br />
water table? Is there sufficient storage<br />
volume? Can the water be extracted<br />
economically, and what is the in-situ water<br />
quality? Scientists will present several<br />
artificial recharge scenarios and discuss<br />
scientific information to help understand<br />
aquifer storage and recovery planning and<br />
management issues.<br />

A major milestone was reached in late<br />

documents analyzing key elements and<br />
effects of the Bay-Delta Conservation<br />
Plan (BDCP). These documents assess<br />
the movement of an average of 5.9 million<br />
acre feet of water a year and the creation<br />
of over 110,000 acres of fish and wildlife<br />
habitat. Stakeholders will share an open<br />
discussion evaluating project alternatives<br />
and solutions which will be critical to<br />
solving local water issues.<br />

“water recycling: what are the<br />
legislative stumbling blocks?”<br />
Increased water recycling is widely accepted<br />
as a key means to significant, new, local<br />
water supply reliability in the near-term. But<br />
while water quality and technical advances<br />
are increasing the feasibility of this supply,<br />
its political viability has proven to be more<br />
elusive. What are some of the current<br />
political and accompanying regulatory<br />
barriers to increased water recycling<br />
in California? Our panel shares their<br />
viewpoints in a lively discussion.<br />

“Justin willman: like a magician,<br />
but Cooler”<br />
This Thursday evening dinner event will<br />
be less formal and more relaxed. The<br />
evening will feature a variety of food<br />
stations allowing you to mingle your<br />
way through dinner, while visiting with<br />
your colleagues and friends. After dinner<br />
you will be treated to the entertainment<br />
of Justin Willman – who’s “like a<br />
magician, but cooler.” Quickly becoming<br />
one of the busiest TV personalities and<br />
live entertainers in America, Willman<br />
has been featured on the Rachael Ray<br />
talk show and presently hosts the hit<br />
shows “Cupcake Wars” and “Last Cake<br />
Standing” on the Food Network. Having<br />
performed at the White House last<br />
year for the President and First Lady,<br />
Willman is the “new breed of magician,<br />
a sort of young, hip Ed Sullivan who’s<br />
making magic cool again for grownups,”<br />
according to a December 9, 2011<br />
Los Angeles Times article. Come as<br />
you are and join us for a relaxed and<br />
fun evening!<br />

The SmartDitch® System is designed to<br />
improve water flow and minimize erosion<br />
along irrigation, stormwater, and water<br />
conveyance channels. It is an engineered<br />
“ditch lining” system that is often specified<br />
for drainage projects where traditional<br />
methods such rip rap, concrete, and<br />
vegetated channels have failed. SmartDitch<br />
is an ideal solution for slope stabilization,<br />
erosion control, and improved water flow.<br />
Typical applications include: roadside DOT<br />
drainage channels, irrigation/agriculture<br />
ditches, residential and commercial<br />
site drainage, and landfill maintenance<br />
and restoration projects. Whether your<br />
project calls for a new installation, ditch<br />
rehabilitation or temporary flow diversion,<br />
SmartDitch comes in three sizes: 12” and<br />
24” depth pre-formed channel sections,<br />
and as an infinitely expandable SmartDitch<br />
“MegaDitch” liner system for very large<br />
channel, ditch and canal rehabilitation or<br />
construction.<br />
