Mission

Major Activities

Activity 2

Los Angeles Rainwater Harvesting Project: Instruct Panorama City residents on the benefits of certain 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. The River Project conducted significant outreach to the community and led a series of hands-on workshops for residents and other interested parties about how (and why) to design and implement residential rainwater harvesting and water conservation projects on their own properties, managed the project website (www.waterla.org), continued development of conceptual plans for retrofits, convened several meetings of the project's technical advisory committee, worked with local government officials to streamline and reduce fees associated with permitting for greywater systems, and began development of a series of how-to guides to accompany the standard plans.

Activity 3

Water LA: Studio City: Undertake a public awareness campaign about a range of regional water-related challenges, educate the public about issues and facilitate specific actions they can take to conserve water. The River Project organized a screening series of documentary films about water with Q&A panels of experts after each to spark discussion, distributed hundreds of water-saving devices, and secured commitments from community members to take personal action.
