      <image:caption>Bruce Reznik took the helm of LA Waterkeeper (LAW) in September 2015, where he directs the organization’s advocacy and programmatic work. Reznik previously spent eleven years running San Diego Coastkeeper, where- under his direction- the organization grew into the region’s most effective voice for clean water and helped dramatically reduce sewage, stormwater and industrial pollution of area waterways and educated and engaged tens of thousands of San Diegans in clean water efforts. Immediately prior to joining LAW, Bruce served as Executive Director for San Diego Housing Federation, where he promoted affordable housing and sustainable community development to ensure all San Diegans could afford a safe and stable place to call home. He also has led the Sacramento-based Planning Conservation League, where he directed the organization’s efforts to promote sustainable water, land-use and transportation policies for California, as well as the Sustainable San Diego collaborative dedicated to ensuring the long-term vitality of the San Diego/Tijuana region’s communities, environment, and economy by strengthening and integrating regional planning. Bruce also worked to promote sustainable land-use and transportation planning for the LA based consulting firm Gladstein, Neandross &amp; Associates. A California-licensed attorney, Reznik holds an undergraduate degree from UC Berkeley and his law degree from the University of San Diego. Reznik has served as an Alternate on the California Coastal Commission, and has sat on numerous local, state and national boards and commissions, including the international Waterkeeper Alliance for six years.

      <image:title>Our Team - Audrey Siu</image:title>
      <image:caption>Audrey is the Urban Resilience Director for LA Waterkeeper. She brings experience across government, non-profit, and private industry sectors to this role. Her professional career began with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers as a regulatory specialist where she executed on major federal acts, including the Clean Water and National Environmental Policy Acts - working with project proponents to avoid and minimize resources in the public trust. She has also worked as an environmental consultant on projects for private development and public works, leading contamination due-diligence, environmental impact mitigation, and helping clients navigate complex regulatory environs. Most recently, she ran the policy team at Miami Waterkeeper, where she steered her team to hold polluters accountable and advocate for policy protections for our most precious resource, water. Ms. Siu translates her previous government, non-profit, and private sector experience to her work. She holds that advocating for watershed-wide improvements and resilience involves an intersection of issues, including infrastructure upgrades; incorporating nature-based solutions into urban areas; creating meaningful and enforceable policy changes; and instigating broad public involvement and buy-in for resilient and equitable solutions. After work, you can find her scouring local farmers markets for the freshest produce, improving her yoga practice, and working on her game of darts.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Our Stories - A New Day for MWD: Embracing Climate-Centered Water Management - “The implementation of CAMP4W marks a revolutionary shift for MWD in its nearly 100-year history. For the first time, MWD is centering climate change in its planning and investment decisions, and prioritizing the need for more local water supplies.

      <image:caption>Among these artistic marvels was "A Spring in the LA River," a breathtaking acrylic on canvas by visionary artist David Eddington which championed a vision of the River’s restoration to a thriving and accessible resource for all Angelenos. Another captivating piece that graced the evening was "Avocet” by minimalist artist Da Aie Park. These sculptures, fashioned from aluminum mesh, symbolized the hidden jewel that is the River and challenged the notion of a city dominated by concrete, inviting viewers to dream instead of a thriving, serpentine curve of green amidst the urban jungle. Last but certainly not least, artist Michelle Robinson presented two remarkable pieces. "What Was (4th Street)" featured a photograph of the channelized riverbed superimposed with illustrations of what once was—the trees, riverbed, rocks, and natural riparian ecosystem. Her second piece, "A Field Guide to Lost Creatures," comprised a series of embroidered animals, whose symbolic unraveling underscored the severity of the habitat loss along the river, imploring the viewer to act before these creatures become lost forever.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Mia Lehrer, the founder and president of Studio-MLA, was another honoree. She is renowned for her work in progressive landscape design and her advocacy for sustainable and people-friendly public spaces. Mia's contributions to the Los Angeles River have been instrumental, particularly through her involvement in delivering the City's River Revitalization Master Plan and the 2020 Upper LA River and Tributaries Revitalization Plan. The third honoree, Joe Edmiston, was appointed Executive Director of the Santa Monica Mountains Conservancy in 1979. Under his leadership, the Conservancy has preserved over 60,000 acres of public parkland, spanning from the Mojave Desert to the Pacific Ocean, and from various watersheds to the Los Angeles River. Joe's extensive experience in environmental planning and park development has been invaluable in safeguarding natural spaces throughout the region. The River Champion Honorees at Making Waves 2023 embodied our shared vision for the LA River's revitalization. These exceptional individuals and organizations underscored the transformative potential inherent in unity and collaboration, leading the way toward a more sustainable, accessible, and vibrant future for the river.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Southern California relies heavily on the Colorado River Aqueduct (CRA) for its water supply. However, the effects of over allocating water from the river, combined with the ongoing megadrought in the Southwest, has wreaked havoc on the health of the Colorado River.  Metrics reported from the Water Data website have shown the decline in water levels in Lake Powell and Lake Mead— the Colorado River Basin’s largest reservoirs. In mid-2022, the resevoirs reached their lowest points in over 20 years.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Our Stories - STATE OF THE WATER: How LA’s Water Sources are Faring After ‘The Drench’&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;</image:title>
      <image:caption>As of June 2023, the current water levels in Lake Mead and Lake Powell stand at 8,081,062- and 9,141,694-acre feet, respectively (a positive change of 11% and 35%, respectively since June 2022). But while these gains provide some relief, the long-term effects of this wet season are not nearly enough to undo the damage that has been caused by severe drought and overconsumption.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Unfortunately, decades of pollution have contaminated many of these aquifers, while the hardcape that is so prevalent throughout the region has limited the natural recharge of these basins from our rains. Luckily, water agencies such as the LA Department of Water and Power (LADWP) and the Water Replenishment District (WRD) are undertaking largescale groundwater cleanup efforts to allow us to more fully tap into these supplies. But before the drench, our groundwater levels in many of these basins were extremely low. In fact, combined, our groundwater basins had a staggering 1.5 million acre-feet of available storage capacity – enough to serve the entire population of LA County for nearly 18 months (assuming 80 gallons per person per day water withdrawal).</image:caption>

      <image:caption>California’s winter weather has been a topic on repeat this year, with nonstop coverage dissecting the status of our drought, record snowpack, and nearly full reservoirs.  Since October 1, the start of the wet season, Los Angeles has received more than 24 inches of rain, which is nearly 200% of normal for the time period. This deluge of rain comes on the heels of a three-year megadrought, one which intensified the state’s water deficit and triggered dire water shortages as unfavorable precipitation trends and intense heat waves persisted across the state.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Our Stories - Safe Clean Water Program – … and What’s Next!       (Part III)&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;</image:title>
      <image:caption>But my positive feelings about what we’ve accomplished to date must not be confused with believing that a hard look at how the program may be falling short is not necessary. In fact, our assessment demonstrates that substantial improvements are needed and possible. And, as highlighted previously, the SCWP has a built-in process for ongoing assessment and adaptive management…a process, known as the biennial review, that is to be completed this year for the first time.   Our report included a summary of recommendations for the Regional Oversight Committee (ROC) to consider in this biennial review, and how the SCWP can and should be improved. That summary is included as part of this blog; a more complete set of recommendations can be found starting on page 37 of our assessment.   Rather than restarting them all I would like to highlight a few major points here.  First, the ROC must initiate the biennial review immediately. As highlighted throughout this blog series, the SCWP is a massive and complex program that aims to achieve a myriad of diverse goals for the LA region. As someone involved in our assessment, as well as some of those undertaken by other groups, I can attest to the massive undertaking it is to evaluate the various aspects of the SCWP in depth.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Our Stories - Safe Clean Water Program – What’s Worked and What Hasn’t (Part II)&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;</image:title>
      <image:caption>If you saw some of the reporting on the release of our assessment, you may have gleaned the program is falling significantly short of goals. The reality is much more complicated than that, which is understandable for a program as complex as the SCWP. There is much we can and should celebrate about the Safe Clean Water Program, even while noting areas where it can be improved.    Starting with the report’s very first finding, LA Waterkeeper noted that “a complex program gets off the ground and achieves notable success.” With voters having approved Measure W just over four years ago, the SCWP has managed to not only get off the ground, but fully complete three rounds of funding, with the 4th round of projects already scored and recommended (to be affirmed by the Regional</image:caption>

      <image:title>Our Stories - Safe Clean Water Program – A Time to Reflect (Part I)&amp;nbsp;</image:title>
      <image:caption>As an advocate for this program, I also personally wanted to better understand its performance so I can focus my efforts moving forward in ways that will most contribute to the SCWP’s success. I’ve heard from people I respect, who were also very involved in the development of the SCWP, that they feel the program is falling significantly short of its goals and is not turning out to be the transformational program it could be. Others have complained to me that money is not going out the door quickly enough, despite the $1B earmarked to date. This latter complaint hit its crescendo during our massive and ongoing storms this year, when reporter after reporter would ask why more SCWP projects haven’t already been built to capture all this runoff that we’re seeing wash out into our coastal waters.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Cleanup Challenge - Join the Challenge</image:title>
      <image:caption>Challenge sites are categorized into four groups: Coastal, River &amp; Creeks, Metropolitan Parks, and Trails. Participants pick sites from any category of their choice to ensure cleanup efforts improve our watershed, help diverse communities, and protect our ocean. After the first cleanup, you have one year to complete 4 cleanups and become a Cleanup Champion. Once you’ve finished the Challenge, you will receive a certificate of completion and fun prizes!

      <image:caption>Reducing sewage spills in the City of Los Angeles by 90% since 2000 through legal action.  Changing the way roads are built to reduce toxic runoff by 360 million gallons a year, through our settlement with Caltrans.  Compelling regulators to adopt cleanup plans for local waterways to reduce bacteria, metals, trash, and forever chemicals like PCBs and DDT to keep people and wildlife safe.</image:caption>

      <image:title>30th Anniversary - Healthy Habitats</image:title>
      <image:caption>Bringing our LA River back to health, including stopping polluting development projects, promoting the effort to bring the river back to its natural state where feasible, and raising up community voices to share their vision for the river.  Patrolling Marine Protected Areas, often with underserved and at-risk youth volunteers, to prevent abuse, gather data, and educate community members.  Promoting sea otter population recovery in Santa Monica Bay.</image:caption>

      <image:title>30th Anniversary - Systems Change</image:title>
      <image:caption>Helping to bring about Measure W and the Safe Clean Water Program, which provides $280 million every year for multi-benefit stormwater projects, including parks, open space and green schoolyards. This program aims to dramatically reduce municipal runoff pollution – the region’s #1 source of pollution.  Reinvesting $30 million in pollution-impacted communities, funding restoration projects such as Watts Re:Imagined, through supplemental environmental projects (SEPs) in partnership with 55+ local groups.  Saving our coast and climate from damaging ocean desalination, in favor of better local alternatives like wastewater recycling and groundwater.</image:caption>
