Southern California Salinity Coalition

 

     Twelve member agencies formed the Southern California Salinity Coalition in May of 2002 as a non-profit organization in order to address the salinity problems. SAWPA is one of the member agencies of the Coalition. The six primary strategic goals of the organization include:

 
State and Federal Advocacy
Salinity Information and Education Program
Focus Regional and Watershed Planning on salt balance issues
Evaluation of brine management alternatives
Develop an inventory of salt-generating sources
Identify research funding priorities.

Stakeholder Effort

 

 

     The Coalition is administered by the National Water Resources Institute. It facilitates discussions with policy makers to view the use of watershed and basin planning as a method to achieve salt balance and develop policy for long-term salinity management. The Coalition encourages the implementation of such policies in the basin planning process, Bulletin 160 updates, regional integrated resources planning, urban water management plans, and permit processes. The Coalition also works closely with the Southern California Regional Water Quality Control Boards, U. S. Environmental Protection Agency Region IX, and local agencies to assist dischargers in meeting their requirements through salt and nutrient management plans that can be implemented in a timely fashion.
