Los Angeles County’s newly-implemented Safe, Clean Water Program (SCWP) generates $300M per year to specifically address resiliency and stormwater issues by improving water quality, increasing drought preparedness, prioritizing Nature-Based Solutions (NBS), providing disadvantaged community benefits, and promoting green jobs, among other benefits. As the local communities work together to transform the landscape into a more resilient version of itself, one challenge looms large: how do we choose the best suite of projects to balance multiple benefits, maximize return on investments, and allow us to clearly and transparently measure our success? This session describes a groundbreaking collaboration between permitted municipal agencies and local non-governmental organizations (NGOs) that delivers consensus-based policy recommendations rooted in modeling and scientific rigor.
