Special events and activities to integrate USGS staff into other educational eventsdeliverables and expected outcomes: each project wet program around the world is required to develop its own funding to support its work by forming partnerships with other agencies. In 2005, the california project wet program was seriously endangered when federal budget cuts forced the bureau of reclamation, mid-pacific region to reduce its general support funding to the water education foundation for project wet to 50 of its previous level.california project wet proposes to continue promoting the use of U.S. Geological survey materials in our education outreach throughout the state of california. The project wet network of facilitators are an effective distribution outlet for the fine work that USGS is doing and with USGS support, california project wet will continue to focus its efforts on maintaining the existing program of workshops, with an additional emphasis on watershed management, water use efficiency and conservation, water quality, storm water run-off and the impacts of a changing climate and extreme weather events. As the potential for a drier future looms, IT is essential that all educators working with K-12 school children have an opportunity to receive, understand and be able to integrate high quality water science data, information and development of critical skills to better educate our citizens of the future.
Intended beneficiaries
USGS, water education today, and the public.
