Energy, Water & Environmental Sustainability Council

  

Join us for a discussion with an adviser from the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) for insights on a range of issues impacting California private utilities. Council Vice-Chair Noah Perch-Ahern will moderate the discussion on regulatory and legal issues, strategic objectives and the water/energy nexus policy development the Commission is currently engaged in. From fracking to cap-and-trade, we'll hear how state and federal regulations impact the water/energy nexus, and how that impact influences the operations of water and energy companies.

 

We'll also hear from the L.A. Mayor's sustainability team on the City's application for a Green City designation from Volkswagon. This competition is the result of a legal settlement with VW and a winning bid for the designation would come with dollars to invest in air quality improvements.

 

Additionally, the Council will review our ACCESS Sacramento trip advocacy and discuss priority issues for our ACCESS Washington, D.C. delegation to advocate for in Washington next month.
