| IRS990/Desc | 0 | Los Angeles Rainwater Harvesting Project: Instruct Panorama City residents on the benefits of water-related, climate-resilient retrofits to their properties, assist residents in completing the retrofits, create city-approved standard plans for these retrofits, and monitor changes in runoff using established monitoring stations. In this period, the River Project developed a conceptual plan for managing stormwater at the Ranchito Elementary School campus in the project area, continued ongoing outreach to the community, conducted two dozen workshops, undertook 25 residental site evaluations, began development of a set of How-To guidance plans, continued development of an interactive project website (www.waterla.org), led TAC meetings with City agencies, completed development of conceptual plans for retrofits, began development of the final set of plans, and completed implementation of several projects. The program was presented by invitation to the National Academy of Sciences to support a study of the benefits of stormwater capture and greywater use. |
