We need you at the Alabama Water Policy Symposium.

When: August 2, 2012
Where:
Birmingham Botanical Gardens, 2612 Lane Park Road, Birmingham, AL

Who should attend? 

All Alabama citizens who want their voices heard in the discussion about the development of a comprehensive water management plan for our state. Now that the governor has taken leadership and put this process into motion, we, as concerned citizens, have a responsibility to play our partWe must insist on water for all, not water for a select few!  We must also insist on the protection of flows in our rivers to ensure that “clean water for all” continues to be possible for many generations to come.

What to expect:

  • Luncheon speakers from Alabama's State Agencies with question and answer sessions to follow:
    • Lance LaFleur, Director of the Alabama Department of environmental Management, will discuss the stakeholder partcipation process in and a timeline for the creation of state water policy.
    • Stan Cook, Chair of Fisheries for the Alabama Department of Conservation and Natural Resources,  will discuss the process of developing a water policy that is protective of the flows necessary to preserve the environmental health of Alabama's river ecosystems.
  • The Nature Conservancy of Alabama will share information on instream flows and some of their experiences in working on this issue in other states.
  • Alabama Rivers Alliance and Southern environmental Law Center will lead a strategy discussion on flow protections, answering questions like:
    • How do we talk about it to get our message across?
    • How do we get there?
    • Where do we go from here?

What you'll take home:

  • A better understanding of what Alabama needs in a water management policy
  • Tools you can take home to help your friends and neighbors be advocates of good water policy
