The invitation-only meeting, set for May 19 through May 22, will include about 100 participants, most of whom live in the basin, as well as a few state, regional, and national policy makers. In addition to addressing water issues, conference goals include establishing networks between regions and stakeholders and preparing sustainable development plans that are acceptable from an economic, ecological, community, and public health perspective.
