At the Central Catawba Basin Watershed Symposium, you can join in discussions of the pressing challenges of water quality, quantity, and management around the Greater Charlotte region that makes up the Central Catawba River Basin.
Professionals from the municipal and county water, wastewater, and stormwater industry, as well as environmental non-profits and higher education institutions of the area, are invited to participate in these discussions as we strive to take a collaborative approach to solving the region’s water challenges.
